Scent LOK:
with 2 salt blocks, molasses, 50lbs of deer feed, and whitetail addiction in front of it
To me it sounds like he is a very, very poor representation of a hunter & outdoorsman. He appears to be trying to increase his odds of POACHING a deer anyway he can. Yes - knowingly hunting over an illegally baited area is poaching.
Like the others said, law enforcement doesn't have to prove he put the bait there or even knows that the bait is there - he is, and that's enough of a "smoking gun" to cite him.
I FEEL that the other members should be made aware of his baiting IMMEDIATELY! If one of them should be unsuspectingly hunting anywhere even near the bait, law enforcement could pop them and they truely would be ignorant of the baiting. LE has a way of finding baited areas and then setting up to suveil and see who comes to hunt there - BUSTED!
I think you should follow suit with Kevin1 and steer clear of your cousin - he's a bad actor.
