There is a spot where weve been feeding turkey some cracked corn. From a legal stand point can we stop putting corn out for so many days and then hunt that area or can we hunt close/near to it ? What are the laws or post a link please. Thanks

Thats exactly right. 10 days after ALL of the corn has been removed. If a warden walks up on you and find's one kernel,your done for. It's best to steer clear of it.

From an enforcement standpoint, IMO your chances of getting caught are slim and none. From an ethics standpoint,however, its wrong, which ought to be deterent enough in itself. Somebody is baiting, feeding them, call it what you will, adjacent to us, as a bird we killed last week was full of fresh corn. It was so last year and also previously. I wish the TWRA could locate, identify and deal with the offending party, but I hold little hope out for that happening. Big country and one C O in the county.
