Ten to fifteen percent of the population has a personality disorder(s) of varying magnitudes. Roger is one who hassles fishermen. It is easier for the police to chase off fishermen then deal with Roger. You need to get him cited for harassment by the state fish and game officers. Citizens have a right to access public lands within regulatory guidelines without being hassled. Fishermen need to stand and fight back.
Yes...THIS. Ironically, typical officers seemed to be handcuffed. DNR, or whatever MN calls it, needs to get involved, because they (normally) don't answer to anyone.
I can agree with your comment. However, I did get drawn to the fisherman's statement of needing to cast real close to the homeowners wall for bites. Because I am a home owner on a National Bass Fishing body of water. I know what its like to spend 1000's of dollars every 2-3 years in repair to my shoreline features. I myself have signed petitions of 100s to close the water to fishermen. It wont happen cus the town makes MILLIONS. However, my DNR did say get a picture of them damaging my property. The officer said he would take their boat. I laughed cus I think...think he was joking. Mr. Fisherman in the video showed his hand. I would bet he has hit that wall with bait or lure. Thats vandalism... period. Now lets clap for fishermen that break laws?
Call the game warden. They would love to ticket a non outdoorsman for harassing those that buy hunting and fishing licenses. The fine money would then go back into supporting your fisheries.
Good for you Shane ! I tell my kids and friends , always stick up for yourself because nobody else will . As an angler myself , Thank You and keep fishing Pal.
Man I had a similar experience but it happened 2 times then I had enough and when cops should up I told them I'm calling game warden. Warden showed up told person who was harassing me he is righting him a ticket and he told the cop that he would right him one to because cop was acting like a dush bag and told them he wouldn't right tickets every time they harassed me . I don't no what state your in but wi warden sometimes come to your defense. Never had a problem again.
This is the problem with current America. People do harmless activities, doesn't hurt anyone and this is what happens. Yet people wonder why the younger generation is playing video games and doing drugs rather then favorable activities. Getting outdoors, connecting with nature. Keeping healthy and out of trouble. They're making it harder and harder. Enforcing bullcrap rules, while also destroying wildlife for more roads and such.
You have done a great job at documenting and being in the right. You were very cordial and you were armed with knowledge!!! You made us all look good. Thank you for that! To be honest all your local fisherman, and any viewers that are able to come should have an organized fishing day right across from Rogers punk ass
You really need to call the DNR. People need to learn that their actions have consequences. You’d think Roger would understand that, given his age. Dude needs a hefty fine, completely ridiculous to harass law abiding fishermen.
There’s a parking area where I go for striped bass, the local homeowner installed signs that said “30 minute parking”. The signs got removed by the town, new ones appeared (again by a homeowner) and were defaced with fishing stickers…
By me we have a great bridge for fishing white bass, walleye and sometimes crappie. There's a farm road along the river where we could park off the side of the road in the grass between the river and the road. The farmer who owns the land on the OTHER side of the road from the river petitioned the county to put no parking signs on BOTH sides of the road. He claims they can't get farm equipment up and down the street if cars park there. The only time they run farm equipment is when they plant in the spring and harvest in the fall. It's literally 2 days a year that they need room for the big equipment. What a d-bag. Makes it basically impossible to fish there because it's a busy highway and it's not safe to walk to the bridge from the highway....and you can't park anywhere down the farm road anymore.
Texas has a harassment law that makes it a crime to harass some involved in legal hunting or fishing. You should approach your DNR or Wildlife office about a similar rule.
They are Federal laws actually, that makes it a felony to horas, impair or other wise interfere with people fishing or hunting. So anytime this happens call the Game Warden never the Police they don't know the fishing regulations nor do they have authority to stop you from fishing unless your are actually trespassing then you are in their area of responsibility. So know where the boundaries are.
@@houkikker136Nearly every word you wrote is utter rubbish other than your advice to take it upon yourself to call a game warden. Harassment laws on fishing and hunting are up to the states to decide and regulate UNLESS it's USDFS rangers on FEDERAL land, and even then most of the laws and regulations are the state's jurisdiction. Rangers can however enforce state regulations on federal lands, for example a national forest as opposed to a state forest.
Agreed, most states have harassment laws. They also have vandalism laws to prevent fisherman bouncing lures and bait off docks and water walls. Some owners petition to move fishing areas in order to protect their property. Then some criminals make videos as click bait pushing a false narrative.
I don't understand why the cops aren't telling Roger to STOP calling the police or he will be the one ticketed.. is this guy immune to abusing emergency services?
Roger most likely has friend in high places on police department. Most of the police officer don’t want to lose their job either serving the whim of Roger
You need to get a big group together for a meet up just for giggles. Imagine the look on poor Roger’s face when he looks across the way and sees 100 anglers on the shore line. 👀 “Hey Roger! This can be the first or last time I bring my “friends”, choice is yours.”
The only way he’s going to quit doing this is when he starts getting hit for it. You need to call DNR every time he harasses you. Once he gets a few tickets from them he’ll get the message.
This is the correct answer. He needs to tell the officer to shit or get off the pot. ie. Give him the damn ticket or not. If he gets a ticket he can fight it in court.
How about doing a video with the DNR explaining you are following the rules. With that you can easily get a restraining order on Roger. The local cops would probably be happy with Roger put in a box
As a victim myself of exactly similar anti fisherman / hunter harassment, a simple call to the DNR will put pressure on him not to make frivolous complaints which, once it’s confirmed that roger is wrong, will stop the complaints or he goes to court prosecuted by the state.
Why don't you get a kayak? That 100 foot thing only applies to bank fishing, they can't dictate where you fish from a navigable waterway. I would anchor my kayak right in front of that guy's house 🤣😂😂😂
There actually can be boat restrictions fishing near bridges and dams. Anywhere they want to restrict you really. Not that I know this place has boat restriction or not.
Dude you seriously need to get DNR involved. This isn't the cops area of enforcement. You're a fisherman being harassed. Interfering with a sportsman can be a huge fine. You have multiple videos of harassment. Get DNR out there and get the situation handled instead of dragging the issue out for channel content.
Not dragging it out… this guy knows people and I’ve tried to get people out there. I have to get them there when he’s doing it. There’s no telephone number for the local DNR agent otherwise I would’ve called him in the last video. The very next time I will be getting the DNR involved no matter what
@@FishBrainShane You don't need to track down an agent just call the freaking state DNR number. Do you think they wont know how to dispatch an agent? You really are a fish brain I guess.
I think Fish and Game needs to have a sit-down with the police department and tell them what public property means and then go write that person across the river a big fat ticket for harassment of fishermen
Shane you are missing a big time key point on that guy. Have the DNR check out his water pick up pipe for watering his grass, trees, shrugs, etc. I"m betting he does not have a permit for drawing out water from the river. tip of the year for ya. I'm betting it is illegal. Shane you did great keeping your cool. Hoping more people will come out and fish including more kids getting involved with fishing. good luck,
You need to go to nearest Fish Commission (DNR or whatever you call them in your state) and file a complaint. Police are not going to help you. The fish warden will straighten this out, and you will be able to fish in peace here forever.
Last time I went fishing an old guy tried calling the cops and even tried to fight me. I guess he does it so often in the area cops don't even bother coming out anymore.
Bravo Zulu for standing up for the rights of lawful anglers enjoying the great outdoors! We as citizens of the USA 🇺🇸 enjoy rights and privileges. One of them being nature and all she has to offer. Your rights don’t stop where Roger’s feelings begin… Just subscribed and keep the videos coming!
It helped, but to be fair I have over 140 other videos and a lot of support from people who watch all episodes. I truly love fishing and catch a lot! I should thank him though 😂
@@FishBrainShane the harassment videos are 95% of your total views, so indeed thank you Roger! Roger is such a cartoon character- he even wears the same blue t shirt and long shorts outfit every day, LOL Looking forward to further Roger interactions. Maybe they moved the sign
As another MN fisherman though a northern MN guy I can say you handle yourself a lot better and with more patience than I would if I was being harassed like that. Good job bud!
As a hunter from Wisconsin, how TF is DNR/Warden/Fish & Game not involved. City police shouldn’t be handling a complaint related to Fishing/Hunting. Also the proximity to the river raises the question of whose land your actually on. I’d argue state land because of the “water shed” which would definitely mean it’s not a city police problem. But yea, when you litterally tell him to stop talking and leave you alone and he keeps yelling at you that’s 100% harassment. Telling him to stop is what really helps you.
Seriously, assuming he keeps dialing 911 he could be charged for misuse of the 911 system. That's an avenue. DNR a good route though. All that said the man chose to live next to a public park and he needs to accept his choice.
really nice to see the measure come out a wicked thing to do i whish more people used things like that to prove them right it makes a big difference in court
The next time you need to really just turn to the cop and say, “Mn statutes 97A.037 states what he has been doing is a crime and I would like you to press charges.” At that point if they don’t they are criminal as well. Then call the dnr and report the lot of em.
How many times can someone call the police for what is (for lack of a better word ) frivolous issue or non issue? At some point Roger should be cited? Can you get a restraining order? Roger is wasting police time. You need to look at the 911 phone records and find out how many calls he has made over the years.
My thought exactly! There's a law for misuse of police resources and falsely reporting a crime. After a certain number of times being called, they can actually fine or even give jail time to the person for making false claims. If the "county" put in the signs, I'd expect/ request the "county" to come out there and have him, you, the police, and the DNR walk the 100 ft out from "where the county measured it" so EVERYONE will be in agreement. And if he is upset where it is and he doesn't want to see people behind his house, he should maybe look into the local code and see if he's able to put a fence back there cause that is absolutely ridiculous. He needs another hobby than calling the cops on people for being on public property, and harassing them from their legal right.
I wish you had this passion towards the people who force us to get a recreational fishing license ! I was taught and learned that we all have a god-given right to recreational fish for food fun therapy and a license is buying that right, recreational fishing license=permission slip.
I'd also like to know your game warden interpretation. Here in Florida it's zero tolerance to bother a hunter or fisherman. Police already know to tell the person to call Florida fish and wildlife and that game warden will almost always blow up in the callers face. It's great lol.
I thing these police officers would probably appreciate handing Roger’s complaints over to another authority. In future, when Roger calls about fishing in the wrong place, his calls get forwarded to a game warden/DNR.
He might be using a non- emergency number. Where big city police would blow him off, some of the smaller suburbs have officers who will respond to everything. Still, they should eventually stop responding
Lol I found your page 2 nights ago and I watched the full series and was wondering if it has ben resolved yet. Thanks for the speedy update haha. You got a new subscriber.
The biggest deal here is , how many other fishermen and kids has he chased away or ruined a great time fishing. Please contact authorities even if just to educate roger.🤨
I live on a canal, in the summer we get a lot of boat traffic. It’s just tourists having a drink or two and cruising. Sometimes their music is too loud or even kind of offensive. But they are having fun. I just wave.
In the UK Roger would be called a NIMBY! (not in my back yard) Why are the police getting involved in a civil matter? I don't completely know about the US but in the UK they have no jurisdiction in civil matters
New subscriber here, thanks for standing up for the rights of American fishermen. I can't help but wonder how Rodger feels about the "migrants" invading our country and claiming our god-given American Birthrights as their own.
The DNR could fine him for his actions. Unfortunately that may be what it takes to get him to stop. If hes calling 911 all the time thats improper use of an emergency number and he could be fined for that. Thats what I dont get hes is not only harrasing fisherman but the police department. Police dont want to be bothered with petty stuff like this. They are short handed as it is already.
His name is custard due rite & ever since they pinned that badge on him his ass & head halves both swelled! As far as these property owners go ,its a public water way , which as far as the U.S. FFGC is concerned, it includes a 2 -5 foot easement for such related activities & that includes anglers.
Contact your game warden not the police. This is fisherman/hunters Harassment. Let them deal with him. They are a different department and don’t have a reason to be on Rogers side
Good on you for questioning and challenging authority and especially people’s abuse of of their assumed privilege. I think you’re doing good work to preserve people’s freedom to go and do whatever they want that’s within the boundaries of common sense, courtesy, and community. Cheers
You would think the police would set the man straight and tell him stop calling the police or face fines and or jail. Obviously this man has some friends in high places to be able to keep calling police.
I would contact Sheriff Bob Fletcher of Ramsey County he is a very reasonable man he also has a RUclips channel live on patrol I'm pretty sure if you would have talked to him you could get some clarification
I do believe if you get the sign worked out with the accordance of the law hopefully with the dnr help so anglers stop getting unnecessarily harassed. Rodger can get in trouble for wasting public resources every time he calls for that reason. Again all depending on where this takes place.
Good job standing as an American for your rights. Not body has “clout”! That would suggest there is a two tiered justice system and one person may have more rights than another. We all have the same rights and if we allow others to bully us into giving up these rights we will inevitably loose them. Kudos to you. And call the Dnr asap!
People like Roger are ridiculous. The fact that the cops were more worried about keeping Roger from calling them than upholding your rights is a huge part of the problem. Roger has no leg to stand on and should be told in no uncertain terms to stop wasting city resources by calling the law. If he continues they should start citing him. The Rogers of the world never have to pay consequences and that’s the biggest wrong of all.
Ask the County to have it surveyed and put markers where the 100' mark is. Also a rolling tape isn't as accurate as the cloth tape the other guy has. So your measurement is probably less accurate than his. Every bump, every up and down will add distance, especially the ones with the little wheels.
Just found your vid on Facebook. So I stopped in to subscribe! Great content. I got a ways to go to catch up haha. You remind me of my brother in law Casey. Sadly he passed from covid last October. He just moved here to Florida with my sister last summer and was my fishing buddy. No need to say your sorry for my loss, he is in fishing heaven right now and ill be there some day with him. You are a great guy and keep being you. I hope your channel grows and grows. Love it. Have a good day and get the big one! Can't wait to see you at 1 mil subs!!
I really appreciate everything you said! And you have a great attitude about your brother-in-law👍🏼 I’m heading down to Fort Lauderdale in March and will be doing a lot of filming. Maybe we should fish together🤷🏻♂️
Why are you fooling with the police, call the game wardens, they don't just placate the callers, they're there to actually know the game laws, and you can file a fishermen harassment charge against anyone through them Edit: upon completing the video, i see you entertained the idea, and will be doing so next time, please pull the trigger, your licenses afford you that protection and service, and you should utilize it
i´m from Italy is it legal for me to go fishing as a Tourist ? can i just buy a fishing & hunting license ? where are you fishing ? State ? i was Fishing in Minnesota , but on my Friends property with his permission ofc i´m sorry my english is not so good
I absolutely love your level head approach. It's a sad reality in this world that even when you do the right thing and stay within the law you still get harassed by people.
Keep fighting the good fight my dude. There's a DNR "park ranger", he's the guy that checks for park passes and he ALWAYS harasses us. I take my family out there to fish or sometimes swim and he always has something to say. And I'm not alone, everyone I've talked to that's had an interaction with the guy said he's always been rude or creepy to them.

Exactly!
I can agree with your comment. However, I did get drawn to the fisherman's statement of needing to cast real close to the homeowners wall for bites. Because I am a home owner on a National Bass Fishing body of water. I know what its like to spend 1000's of dollars every 2-3 years in repair to my shoreline features. I myself have signed petitions of 100s to close the water to fishermen. It wont happen cus the town makes MILLIONS. However, my DNR did say get a picture of them damaging my property. The officer said he would take their boat. I laughed cus I think...think he was joking. Mr. Fisherman in the video showed his hand. I would bet he has hit that wall with bait or lure. Thats vandalism... period. Now lets clap for fishermen that break laws?
Does Roger spend all his time patrolling the river that is not his?
Call the game warden. They would love to ticket a non outdoorsman for harassing those that buy hunting and fishing licenses. The fine money would then go back into supporting your fisheries.
dude, buy a set of bagpipes tell them "I know how to fish but I don't know how to play the pipes, I'm doing one or the other- your choice"
😂😂😂😂
Blowing pipe you say 🤔 sence some undertones in this one .
Good for you Shane ! I tell my kids and friends , always stick up for yourself because nobody else will . As an angler myself , Thank You and keep fishing Pal.
Don't even engage him, just make the call while he is doing it so the dispatcher can hear it.

My thought exactly! There's a law for misuse of police resources and falsely reporting a crime. After a certain number of times being called, they can actually fine or even give jail time to the person for making false claims. If the "county" put in the signs, I'd expect/ request the "county" to come out there and have him, you, the police, and the DNR walk the 100 ft out from "where the county measured it" so EVERYONE will be in agreement. And if he is upset where it is and he doesn't want to see people behind his house, he should maybe look into the local code and see if he's able to put a fence back there cause that is absolutely ridiculous. He needs another hobby than calling the cops on people for being on public property, and harassing them from their legal right.
@@elainerivera5587 or he could just move. No one is going to force him to live there.
Absolutely despicable, those people need to get a life. They should be ticketed and fined for harassment of fisherman.
I wish you had this passion towards the people who force us to get a recreational fishing license ! I was taught and learned that we all have a god-given right to recreational fish for food fun therapy and a license is buying that right, recreational fishing license=permission slip.
Cops should just arrest Roger for harassment
I'd also like to know your game warden interpretation. Here in Florida it's zero tolerance to bother a hunter or fisherman. Police already know to tell the person to call Florida fish and wildlife and that game warden will almost always blow up in the callers face. It's great lol.
I thing these police officers would probably appreciate handing Roger’s complaints over to another authority. In future, when Roger calls about fishing in the wrong place, his calls get forwarded to a game warden/DNR.
As a fisherman from the 60s, you rock! Thanks for being very firm and as nice as you could be at the same time.
You handled it well! Fish On Bro!
Thanks for that!
Next time he calls the cops for a non emergency they should arrest him instead.
He might be using a non- emergency number. Where big city police would blow him off, some of the smaller suburbs have officers who will respond to everything. Still, they should eventually stop responding
Shouldn’t he call game wardens?
EXACTLY!!
You can contact the police for a non-emergency. That is not illegal.
Lol I found your page 2 nights ago and I watched the full series and was wondering if it has ben resolved yet. Thanks for the speedy update haha. You got a new subscriber.
Thanks bud for the support!
The biggest deal here is , how many other fishermen and kids has he chased away or ruined a great time fishing. Please contact authorities even if just to educate roger.🤨
I don’t get how people have 5-10 years left on this Earth and they decide to spend it being a piece of garbage lmaooo.
Right⁉️🤙
I live on a canal, in the summer we get a lot of boat traffic. It’s just tourists having a drink or two and cruising. Sometimes their music is too loud or even kind of offensive. But they are having fun.
I just wave.
I like this. Good on you for standing up
Thanks, I appreciate the support!
Yes, he stood his ground & was still respectful to the officers.
In the UK Roger would be called a NIMBY! (not in my back yard)
Why are the police getting involved in a civil matter? I don't completely know about the US but in the UK they have no jurisdiction in civil matters
New subscriber here, thanks for standing up for the rights of American fishermen.
I can't help but wonder how Rodger feels about the "migrants" invading our country and claiming our god-given American Birthrights as their own.
Thanks so much for your support!
The DNR could fine him for his actions. Unfortunately that may be what it takes to get him to stop. If hes calling 911 all the time thats improper use of an emergency number and he could be fined for that. Thats what I dont get hes is not only harrasing fisherman but the police department. Police dont want to be bothered with petty stuff like this. They are short handed as it is already.
New Brighton , MN . Roger is a legend on Long Lake. He has been harassing me for 30 years.
His name is custard due rite & ever since they pinned that badge on him his ass & head halves both swelled! As far as these property owners go ,its a public water way , which as far as the U.S. FFGC is concerned, it includes a 2 -5 foot easement for such related activities & that includes anglers.
Yo man probably fishes over on his side at night and when nobody can see him fishing and you're catching all the fish that he wants to catch😂😂😂😂
Contact your game warden not the police. This is fisherman/hunters Harassment. Let them deal with him. They are a different department and don’t have a reason to be on Rogers side
You should have called game wardens .they have more power over most or all Leo's. Check it out.
Have a fishing competition there bring all your buddies
Good on you for questioning and challenging authority and especially people’s abuse of of their assumed privilege. I think you’re doing good work to preserve people’s freedom to go and do whatever they want that’s within the boundaries of common sense, courtesy, and community. Cheers
He's POLITE about it. THATS the Key.
@@aghostofrazgriz5137 💯
You would think the police would set the man straight and tell him stop calling the police or face fines and or jail. Obviously this man has some friends in high places to be able to keep calling police.
I would contact Sheriff Bob Fletcher of Ramsey County he is a very reasonable man he also has a RUclips channel live on patrol I'm pretty sure if you would have talked to him you could get some clarification
Wow crazy .... check out ... fishing with motorcycle mike.. u get a laugh ...
I do believe if you get the sign worked out with the accordance of the law hopefully with the dnr help so anglers stop getting unnecessarily harassed. Rodger can get in trouble for wasting public resources every time he calls for that reason. Again all depending on where this takes place.
Good job standing as an American for your rights. Not body has “clout”! That would suggest there is a two tiered justice system and one person may have more rights than another. We all have the same rights and if we allow others to bully us into giving up these rights we will inevitably loose them. Kudos to you. And call the Dnr asap!
Not many people stand up for their rights, well done kind sir
People like Roger are ridiculous. The fact that the cops were more worried about keeping Roger from calling them than upholding your rights is a huge part of the problem. Roger has no leg to stand on and should be told in no uncertain terms to stop wasting city resources by calling the law. If he continues they should start citing him. The Rogers of the world never have to pay consequences and that’s the biggest wrong of all.
What else could those kids be doing, you ask? They could be egging Roger's house.
Call fish and game, it's against the law to harass a fisherman or a hunter.
I would wear a noise cancelling headset and just ignore him all day
The old man: he who stirs the 💩pot should have to lick the spoon 🥄
After a while, the police are going to treat him like the village treated the boy who "cried wolf"... ignore his pleas for help.
Plot twist roger is not aloud to fish on his own land he is too close lol
Ask the County to have it surveyed and put markers where the 100' mark is.
Also a rolling tape isn't as accurate as the cloth tape the other guy has.
So your measurement is probably less accurate than his. Every bump, every up and down will add distance, especially the ones with the little wheels.
Just found your vid on Facebook. So I stopped in to subscribe!
Great content. I got a ways to go to catch up haha.
You remind me of my brother in law Casey. Sadly he passed from covid last October. He just moved here to Florida with my sister last summer and was my fishing buddy. No need to say your sorry for my loss, he is in fishing heaven right now and ill be there some day with him.
You are a great guy and keep being you. I hope your channel grows and grows. Love it.
Have a good day and get the big one! Can't wait to see you at 1 mil subs!!
I really appreciate everything you said! And you have a great attitude about your brother-in-law👍🏼 I’m heading down to Fort Lauderdale in March and will be doing a lot of filming. Maybe we should fish together🤷🏻♂️
So what the cops is saying, if you complain enough they will enforce laws that dont exist
Why are you fooling with the police, call the game wardens, they don't just placate the callers, they're there to actually know the game laws, and you can file a fishermen harassment charge against anyone through them
Edit: upon completing the video, i see you entertained the idea, and will be doing so next time, please pull the trigger, your licenses afford you that protection and service, and you should utilize it
So kevin james is your brother..got it👍😁😁
😆😆😆
i´m from Italy
is it legal for me to go fishing as a Tourist ?
can i just buy a fishing & hunting license ?
where are you fishing ? State ?
i was Fishing in Minnesota , but on my Friends property with his permission ofc
i´m sorry my english is not so good
You will need a license 👍🏼
In many states there is fishermen and hunter harassment laws ! In Indiana we have them. I would file charges!
Imagine roger having a RUclips too🤯🤣
I absolutely love your level head approach. It's a sad reality in this world that even when you do the right thing and stay within the law you still get harassed by people.
Thanks bud!
If Roger is the problem arrest Roger!
Keep fighting the good fight my dude. There's a DNR "park ranger", he's the guy that checks for park passes and he ALWAYS harasses us. I take my family out there to fish or sometimes swim and he always has something to say. And I'm not alone, everyone I've talked to that's had an interaction with the guy said he's always been rude or creepy to them.
Keep fighting...if they take away small rights, what's next! What City and County was this?
Just ignore him and don’t respond.
Game wardens don't take kindly to harassers during a legal sport. Look up on line.
True 👍🏼
