RE: public
For me baiting on public land. No guide, it's alot of work collected bait, built stands, hauled in barrels and the stands, baited two different weekends before hunting (it's a 600km trip one way) hunted 4 days took down the stands and hauled everything home. The coolest part was watching bears interact with each other and your sitting only a stones throw away. I can't wait for spring!
