That would be considered baiting, which I believe is illegal.
Actually, it's perfectly legal to bait for deer and elk. It's only illegal to bait for bear, turkey, and migratory birds. This has been discussed many times in the past, and they even brought it up before the legislature before to ban it. If it doesn't state it is illegal in the regs, it's not. It didn't have enough support to get much attention. I'd prefer itstay that way and let us make the decision, but that's another argument. Just wanted to clear up the misinformation.
Slee is correct, but I just wanted to remind everyone that the Reg book is not all encompassing. The regs are just a paraphrase of the actual rules/laws.

Wow!!! I always assumed it was illegal. Things to make you go hmmmmm
