Paula Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Not sure if any of you watch the shows. North Woods Law, Maine. Then one from California. Not sure if its because we are seeing it on tv but it seems like those states really work hard to catch the bad guys. Do you think NY works hard? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampy Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I do think they work hard. But they seem to be terribly understaffed. I like watching those shows too! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paula Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Well we know the fines are crap in this state. I understand they are under staffed as they are in Maine and Cali. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I have watched yes NY officers work hard but do not follow through LIke the state of Maine.Maine has much stricter laws for environment than NY Here we can do deer drives but in that state is illegal we cannot bait Bear but they can with the correct permits.The one thing that is tough to understand is wild life laws yes state to state our seasons are different but the means of taken game is the same.

Nomad Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I know a couple , one hunts the same farm as I do . I have had great experiences with them, when we had poacher problems they would change their hours to work nights. Took hair samples to,match dna that they may find on knives and saws of known poachers , set up,robo deer, just did a great job . We would meet up or just email each year to keep,each other informed on what's going on in the area. But they are short staffed and if they are going to,put in the effort they want to,make sure you'll press charges . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 To answer your question Paula,not in all regions IMO. That is also shown in the published record of arrests and sting operations performed...enough said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paula Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 I believe Maine can do drives, it can't be like over 5 people at once. Something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I was watching a repeat of the North Woods Law yesterday where deer were poached in people's front lawns . Some of the poachers even bragged to others as to what they poached and then got caught . A warden checked on one camp . The guys were all sleeping or passed out with beer cans & bottles all over and several guns leaning against the cabin or laying down . The warden didn't see any evidence of poaching and left . They never knew he was there . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 The guys I know locally work hard. Part of the problem is getting approved for over time to finish the jobs. If you have to do it in 8 hours, it is not possible. Believe me if it were that easy, everyone would want to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspressoBuzz Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 On Long Island I've found the D.E.C. Law Enforcement Officers work hard are polite and very very helpful, from which tactic to which spots are better for what game animal and more I have nothing but respect for their efforts! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critter4321 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I now they are understaffed but should they really be out doing smoke checks on commercial trucks instead of looking for people breaking game laws, if you go into a commercial DOT check like you see on the LIE by exit 49 there in there taking samples of smoke from trucks kinda a over step on their part.

growalot Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 There is problemem in a nut shell. They have ECO's period. When they need them and GAME WARDENS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Real_TCIII Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I've posted before about the episode where the warden advised a bow hunter to not take 20 yard and under shots because the arrow can't get up to speed. The Maine school system let him down I'd say 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazard spills, air pollution etc are all part of environmental conservation. Fish and game laws are only a small part of their job description, very small.

Trial153 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I can only speak for the two Encon officers that I know personally. On a personal and professional level they are both great guys, hard working and conscientious. I truly believe they do the best they can with the time and resources they are allotted. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, between the kindle, and the plot to entrap, and whatever else you conjure up, it can't possibly be that you can't spell or use punctuation properly, can it? No, that can't be it. It's always an excuse, and it's always someone else, like your neighbors trying to kill you.
