I've only ran into the warden here, while hunting, 3 times in 26 years. I've seen his truck go by in town a few times, but that's it.

only time i ever saw a wrden was when one pulled me over crosing a road on my fourwheeler

Big problem happening here. Wardens are going commando with surveillance and everything.....

Things are getting so bad, backstraps are being removed from roadkill. Gotta nail em buggers!

Worst year in....uh...years....

Nope never seen one at all exept the 2 times I stopped by his office were he is EVERY TUESDAY!! makes alot of sence having a office day when the poachers know what day he is not in the field!!He is from the city 2 hours away and only checks our huge area of 100 miles by 100 miles every few days and when phone ins are called!! What a crock, i would like to see one everyday out there! I ahve been huntign from sept 1 every day also!Have not even seen one on the highway!Gonna get worse before better in sask I am afraid!!!!

[sasksheds]

I think its just stupid!Darn right the poachers know what day he's in his office.

LDB and I got stopped Thanksgiving weekend by a guy that was out checking waterfowl hunters.

[SaskMan]

I was stopped once, on a day I was not hunting, just happened to be wearing an orange bunny hug from the high school. It's a shame, no wonder so many guys are shooting 2 bucks in zone 55, they'll never get caught!! So sad.

[sasksheds]

Ya & the cops want to see if your gun is registered!GEESHHH!

[shedhunter]

I hunted a lot this fall too, about 25 days in total, never got stopped, but I seen one coming down the gravel road so I turned and gave it gas. Not that I was doing anything illegal just that no one wants to get stopped by them.

[BeerSlayer1]

No one wants to get stopped by them? I always like to talk to them and get as much info from them as possible. If you can't scout every day or are from another area, what better way to find out which side of the river the geese have been flying, what area the most deer hunters are crowding into, or whose having problems with elk on their land and wants some hunters to come and get them. Unless the c.o. is a jerk (and most are not) they'll tell you. It's always interesting to find out if they checked any "big ones" shot this season. I have not seen any this year either and I spent about 25 days afield.

[superguide]

Its more like interrogatinmg you where the big ones are as most of them hunt too. A couple got caught sneaking onto some private land up here a few years back and shooting a monster 5x5. Used the old 'we didn't see the sign defence'. The landowner let them go as he didn't want the hassle or harassment of pressing it any furthur. Like Saskman says they aren't doing a very good job of catching the poachers up here.

[Saskbuck40]

This year, didn't see any.
1 year ago, didn't see any.
2 Years ago, didn't see any.
3 Years ago, didnt see any.

Theres a pattern happening, and its not good for wildlife conservation.

[RyanH]

[SaskMan]
