We were stopped in the Ganny a number of years ago by a uniformed combo C.O./O.P.P. riding together in a beat up Ford Taurus. I asked the flatfoot what caused the big dent in the car and he said "that's one deer you guys wont get" LMAO.

And most of us will still refer to it as the MNR (rolling my eyes). The L&F/MNR had their building beside us in Apsley. Even up until it was closed most of us referred to it as the Lands & Forest building.Quote:

We had the white ghost truck stop outside of where we parked take down our plate no and then 2 hours later walk into the woods at our stand to make sure we had all the paper work and red on as well as gun cases, he completely beggared our hunt.

I just want to see MNR vehicles and more they are seen is a good thing to deter . Just heard a rumour that became true and charges laid . 3 cows left in bush to rot and cow calf killed that was seized because of not tagged . SAD . MNR marked vehicles in THE area may have prevented this .

In my hunting career I can count the number of CO encounters on one hand (yes I still count on my hands). I have seen many more while fishing esp icefishing popular lakes.
This poor showing leads many to believe they can get away with breaking laws. With many WMUs having severe tag reductions you can bet poaching will be up. So I'm still not sure how hiding out in "stealth" vehicles will curb this behaviour.
The other concern I gave is the continued negative view Law Enforcement organizations get...certainly ghost cars/hiding etc does nothing to raise the image of LEO....Hiding is sneaky aka bad aka what bad guys do.
400bb ... absolutely.
