When checking waterfowlers, why not wait at least until after mid-morning, or when we are clearly picking up and leaving, to swoop in to do all the checking? A little courtesy both ways will go a long way toward better relations between legal hunters and GWs
At that rate you could check about 2 groups a day. One in the morning and one in the evening.
I don't ever like to check anybody during "prime time" unless I know they are messing up. Everybody else I try to wait until after the sun is up good and the "shooting hour frenzy" is over. Even then, I like to get in and get out as quickly as possible (unless you have a portable grill with tasty treats cooking over the fire).
You are right. Courtesy on both ends will do wonders.
