If the landowner has an affidavit filed with the probate court in the county saying they won't intervene if a game warden arrests someone trespassing without WRITTEN permission to hunt or fish, then there is no written warning.
If the trespasser has broken a law other than simply being on the property without written permission (killing an animal, keeping a fish, littering, damaging property, etc.) then it's Criminal Trespassing, which gets a whole lot worse.

Stuff like this is why I don’t fool around with trespassing.
I’ve met a few land owners who have just gotten completely burnt out on people trashing their property.
Most live near WMAs. These people have decades of frustration built up and they’ll press charges.
You don’t want any charges you can easily avoid.
Saying, ‘I read on GON that this was ok’ or ‘One time a ranger told me this was ok’ isn’t going to hold up in court.
Don’t be the guy that learns the hard way.
