Thread: Mangatawhiri / Hunua access

The track at the end of Lyons road goes to the edge of Doc's land but on the right side which is all bush is private Land. We have been finding poachers on it, we have been giving them warnings but now we have installed a few camera's and if we catch any poachers well let just say no more hunting for them. We believe we know who they are just got to get them on camera.

Many years ago when I was camping there someone to a shoot at me missed by a few meters, never knew who fired the shoot.

As for deer i have a mate who lives a km or so north of lyons road and property backs on to bush and there are alot of deer up there. They tend to know where they are safe around there, switched on
