Well, it ended up like it should have. He got cited for the unleashed dog, he showed up on site with the dog unleashed so it was a slam dunk. He also got cited for mowing the path with a motorized mower and he got a warning for hunter harassment and was told to not bother us again. He started to sputter and the warden said the fine for hunter harassment is up to $2500 and he clammed up, lol. The other fines could be up to $1000, $500 each but the warden said they usually get $250 for each. The guy was his worst enemy, he showed the behavior that I described in front of the warden, so I think I will be listened to if it goes any further. I think by the look on his face, he is done. Looked like a little kid that just got spanked, lol. It was worth the trip. Have fun and be safe, Z

You were in the right.
He was in the wrong.

Call the law and stick it to him.

To reiterate the current "Mandatory Reporting" is considered a big joke to many of the old school private land turkey hunters from rumors I have been hearing.  Physical tags required for all, even the old geezer exempts, are needed in a big way.  Florida has a long way to go for true accountability.

People keep saying that but what is the real difference between physical tags or on line reporting?  Get caught without a tag or unreported is the same thing.  Outlaws will be outlaws regardless of the method they use to get around the law.
Everything is going digital, the states are pushing it.  I don't see this one changing.

Harder to cheat with physical tags

You at least have to actually have one on you, and once attached, you can't remove it.

Online, you can technically have everything typed in ready to hit save at a moments notice. Get to car, see it's clear and key without reporting.

Think of it like paper you just write on (which is worse). Get home and throw it away and start over

There's just more ways to cheat when it's not a physical hard tag.

More and more we are seeing this attitude of entitlement.  People become self appointed custodians of other people's behavior and rights.  Most peoples first inclination is to just ignore them; it's. just not worth the effort.  Unfortunately, ignoring them gives them a sense of victory and encourages them to repeat this behavior.  I think Greg has the right idea.  This man, not you, broke the law.  Report him to the game warden and let the law address it.  Hopefully, it will be a case of play stupid games and win stupid prizes.  I am sorry he has ruined this opportunity for you but I hope he will win his stupid prize for his actions.

I certainly agree with what others have said. If you do not follow up he will continue with this type of behavior toward you or others. It seems like it is a situation that he considers that property belongs to him.
