I was mad that someone would cast net my ponds, but I held back a little. Mostly, I was shocked that anyone would be so brazen to enter obvious private property, with the pond being 350 feet back from the nearest public road.
I found a little more about the guy. He's a local..early thirties. I'm not a good judge of age.
I put up a "No Trespassing" sign today at the ponds, facing toward the road.
Some of the long time locals have been hunting and fishing on everybody without permission since their teen years, and think it's their right.
I have only owned this place four and a half years, but have lived within 15 miles my whole life, less four years in the USMC.
I'm familiar with that mentality of the long time locals. Saying things like "My grandpa was friends with the old owner", etc.
