I can tell you that they are actively looking for help in this situation. They won’t put cameras out or sensors with out land owner consent. We have both on our lease in Jim Hogg county. This past year we have seen more crossers and bigger groups than we have in the past three years. I saw a group of 47 on opening morning of archery season and numerous game cam pics with sizable groups. I think the odds of 1 or two out of these groups with bad intentions for the U.S. is very probable.

Until this year, we had no "better lifer" traffic at all on our place in Southeast Webb County, but by the end of the deer season (end of Feb.), we were seeing them quite regularly, both in person and on camera... BP so far has responded quickly and they actually busted up a big smuggling/trafficking ring with a call tip. Caught a couple of the higher up's and a rather "famous" or infamous "coyote" that was with the group... both drugs and people smugglers... The crossers have a different attitude now too and that's the scary part. They don't fear us!! I was on the Rio Grande for 31 years and never really felt unsafe or threatened by them, but times have changed now and not for the better.

if you have dealt with them before, i'm pretty sure they know who you are, where you are and how to get in touch with you ... glad to hear that you're actively helping the situation instead of just turning a blind eye . keep up the good work and stay safe ..
contact info is easy for anyone to get, even easier for LEO

We are starting to see more coming through our lease in western Val Verde and Terrell County. One of our lease members had a Mexican stand off with 3 drug mules 2 years ago and then this past year they've gotten into our camp house and stole my snake boots the first time and my jacket the second time. The third time they came in the left a note saying they didn't steal anything and were just looking for food and trying to find a job. At least they locked the door when they left. I'm seeing more an more on camera at one particular feeder.
They know where our camp house is, where the key is to get in and they know where our water is. The kid who had the Mexican standoff dialed 911 and it took nearly 3 hours for the CBP and deputies to show up. There's a sensor down the road from us as well. We didn't know it was there until the CBP showed up 2 hours later and said we set it off.
My wife likes to hunt the set up where we have them on camera a lot. She's always got her rifle and packs her 9mm with her as well. I'm not so sure I'll let her hunt by herself anymore.

47 is a lot. Once they take your AR and high-capacity mags, you wouldn’t have much chance with a group that size.
Dad always put food and water in an outside shed and left it unlocked. It seemed to deter vandalism and theft.
If you want to alter A known path through your property, Set a small hutch with a bottle of water, and a blue flag on your fence lines. Then blue flag path With additional water at each flag. You won’t stop them coming through, but maybe can skirt them to the edge of your property. I believe there’s an actual dedicated water marking system they use along the highway so these people don’t die in the brush. If they already know what it is it’ll make it that much easier

Originally posted by ON THE EDGE View PostI’m probably wrong, but I would think that you’re more violent persons, terrorists, or drug smugglers would be inclined to travel in smaller groups. Less visibility.

This sort of stuff worked 20 years ago, they have a different mind set now.

crazy, all you have to do is watch the Telenovelas, and see some scary stuff that sure seems like true life stuff going on, El Senor del Cielo is a prime example, El Chema with all the Tunnels...
my cousin is down in Duval county south of Benavides and he gets BP stop in and talk to him about the illegals, and ask about the regular Coyotes that use the property for crossing, and have used it for years, but never a danger,
i think more crazy stuff happens south of Fal
