I just bought a bunch of land and since discovered I also have a trespasser.
I own 2 ponds, one is a hair over 3 acres and sits far back off the road and the other is a third of an acre and is next to the road, that’s the one he’s hitting...up until last week that I know of at least.
He felt comfortable enough to mow a nice path to the ponds edge so he can launch his boat.
I haven’t personally caught him yet and have only been told about him from my neighbors.
It’s been quiet since I put new Posted signs up but if he comes back the neighbors are supposed to call me, I currently live 15 minutes away and as long as I’m not on a job I will rush up there.
Gonna be nice but firm the first time but if there is a next time I won’t be.
I planted this sign right at the waters edge where he launches his boat...ain’t no excuses.
I’m just glad he hasn’t found my big pond...Thats full of big bass 😬
Good luck. A good friend had a pond with some nice fIsh. Dad ask to fish it.
"Sorry, I would let you, but, people would see you fish. Then they would be here fishing every time I wasn't home.
Brother in law built a nice pond, stocked it with bass. In the middle of a decent sized farm, up high. Would need a helicopter to find it without tresspassing.
The keep a cable up at the end of the road, few visitors.
One day he was home from work, the phone rang, he was under equipment and ignored it.
Half hour later, he looked out and saw two people were fishing, he put a bullet in the water.
Caller ID pretty much confirmed the call was them checking if someone was home.
And the no caller phone calls stopped.
