You have single-handedly dropped the base IQ of Alaska by at least 20 points. The only point you have is on your head. Wish I could figure out how to post pics so folks could maybe understand what I'm saying.
I guess I'm just weird where I believe our property is ours. No grey area.
I was thinking the other day how much I used to hate Bill Clinton. He was freaking George Washington compared to what they are now.

Dont know what your trying to say but most of my friends back home stick to their beliefs. We don't back down. You may not agree with my beliefs and I couldn't give 2 fugs. Alaska and Michigan hunting are 2 totally separate things. Apples and oranges.

I was checking cameras today and took this picture of my neighbors shooting house. I have no idea why the door is open but the bottom of ladder is on our property. In the 10 years they've been hunting there I have no pictures or any or other sign that they've been on our property.

I have to say this thread has been educational. I had never seen the term "line hunter" before. Here in the west I have the option of hunting public lands (and I live here intentionally for this reason), but in some places I do still need to know where private property lines are so I can avoid trespassing. (GPS sure is helpful!!) I have previously hunted places where it is all private, and you need to be sure whose land you are on, so the problem is not unfamiliar. I have just never experienced what is being discussed in this thread. Then again, I am likely the last person who would "line hunt" due to an aversion for stand hunting (I still-hunt), and a bigger aversion to potentially having to retrieve game that crossed to where I don't have permission to be. Just don't want to have that kind of setup. I prefer a day when I can cruise around see no one else out there, and not have to worry where my game dies. On the other hand, that is also why I use enough gun, so what I shoot is unlikely to get far.
Eye opener.

Wish I could figure out how to post pics so folks could maybe understand what I'm saying. That would be cool. I have never seen a tree stand. I hunt public land exclusively. Count yourself lucky you don't have to deal with that bullchidt.. You'd really be biotching.. ha ha

That's a hell of a high out house. I bet the chidt really splats from that high up..

From the East and this is also the first time I've heard the term. Here there are many occasions where one can hunt property lines. As far as poaching, you either shot game on land you are allowed to hunt or you didn't. Which seems to be the common definition of poaching,
Joel, who seems the be a great guy for some reason feels that if you are looking onto his land you are a poacher, a would be poacher and are in someway illegally violating his property. However, until you shoot something on it....or step foot on you have done nothing illegal.
The whole situation is fairly common in places were there are different properties in close proximity. In the HuntX pic I posted there is a piece that looks down onto Scrubgrass property, and the owners have a box blind that looks into Scrubgrass and is close to their line. No big deal...Deer come up the valley and cross onto their property they become legal. And neither owners make an issue of it...No matter which way the Deer are crossing. In addition, Scrubgrass is all woods and the other surrounding owners corn feeds them more than a little.

Never heard the term ‘line hunter’ either. The area(s) I hunt here in PA have a LOT of ‘lines’. For the most part everyone seems to do their best to respect others property.

Whatever you do, don't introduce yourself before the season and have a rational conversation. Spend your life patrolling the line and trying to fugg his hunt up rather than focus on making yours successful.
