Baiting and feeding are same thing. The only difference is when you start hunting over it. Why one is legal and the other is not, is beyond me. Baiting will be legal soon as they figure out how to turn a profit from it, same as the 20 .00 doe tags un less you have your sportsmans.. Say, that's not a half bad idea. I think I remember one state or province where they have to register bear bait sites. Say $50 a site times the thousands across the state-we might be talking some real money here..... ought not joke like that,some here actualy believe stuff like that..LOL Just like the guy the other day talking about the Elk stocking,then saying how he heard that TWRA was "re" stocking Moose back into the area..LMAO And then got on the subject of rattlesnake and cougar stockings!! I just laughed and said "huh"!! LOL
You're right-I probably shouldn't joke about it or somebody will want to believe my foolishness. I deleted mine.

i hope it never goes legal but expect it too within the next 5 year. Even the does will go nocturnal. May not hurt the deer but will wipe out turkeys because they will be so easy to kill.I mean,even a caveman can do it!

The last time that I checked, it is legal to hunt deer over bait in 60% of the states. I don't ever remember watching a hunting show on Outdoor Channel originating from Texas or Catscrathuon where bait was not apparent. How else do you consentrate deer in one spot on a Sendero surrounded by miles of brush country, or in the Canadian bush where density is not that high to start with? I would love to be able to legally hunt deer over bait on my on place, and quite frankly, it pisses me off that I cannot do so, from a Libertarian standpoint. I certainly would not hunt turkeys over corn, because, I want to have an ongoing turkey population on my own place, and it is enough of an advantage to be successful using calls and decoys. But in years like this one, when IMO the bucks have gone nocturnal and did not have to move to eat due to the huge acorn crop, I would like to give myself at least a chance by having feeders out DURING the season. I think the TWRA is overlooking the obvious, that why would I, of all people, do anything to harm the resource on MY OWN PLACE?

To me I wouldn't hunt turkey over bait is because the thrill of the hunt is the calling. The thrill of the hunt for deer is killing or for some like myself is watching. Just because corn or what ever is your choice is on the ground doesn't mean every deer around is there.

I don't care one way or the other but I do hope it gets legalized for one simple reason: to show these people it ain't shootin' fish in a barrel.
