Baiting other guys fields and calling the warden was a common tactic on the eastern shore around Chestertown in the late 70s to early 80s. A big guide service had a lot of farms but wanted more because there was a lot of money to be made guiding for geese. They'd send a flunkie out to throw corn around a pit and call the warden. Since most guys set up in the dark they never saw the corn. After it all went down the guide service would approach the farmer and lease the farm the next year. It became common knowledge that you better walk the field with a flashlight before doing anything. Not sure why the wardens never figured out what was happening. (wink)
