1 step ahead. I don't hunt this area or pretty much not this state.
It comes from many years of salmon steelhead fishing and posting pics. I never share pics with any clues to important locations. I don't even allow buds to take pics in certain locations we fished because they get passed around and next thing you know you have a pile of claim jumpers in your spot.
Same rule for guys who have unique trucks and large stickers at trailheads. Then post pics of their success on social.
Another reason I don't do social media. I don't feel the need to advertise my success other than with chosen people via text.
Tell me more about your goats. Maybe some safe pics?
