I agree. The "sportsmen" treated these lakes and the land around them as if they were their own public playground with no consideration for landowners. All it took was a few of the wrong ones with connections and/or money and here we are. There should be better tax relief for flooded lands in SD too, that didn't help the situation at all either.

This issue is incredibly polarizing from the SD view. I've stated in other threads, I see if both ways. Growing up in SD, I have never felt comfortable in ND hunting on unposted land without permission. Just feels funny. I have the mindset that why should a landowner HAVE to post it to keep people off? But, my relatives in the SE part of ND see it diffferently. If they post their land, they get pestered all fall with guys running out into the field, stopping the combine, to ask for permission. They'd rather it stays as is, they don't post and then don't get bothered.
