    Depending on the amount there is, be prepared to toss them a little incentive, aka cash.

    If there are "No Trespassing" signs around, stay away. If you step foot on their property even innocently, you can get into trouble, and I don't mean only by the law, you could be staring down the barrel of a shot gun if your not careful. They put those signs up for a reason, respect their privacy.

    Being a respectful and personable person will go far with a lot of old timers and the youngsters as well.

    Good luck.
    Agree with above, be super careful- if you stumble across someone's pot plants, meth lab or still - you could end up getting hurt.
