In my state (Indiana) baiting is illegal, but the regs are real blurry. It all boils down to what the local CO calls "bait", and if the judge agrees.

It's okay to hunt over food plots, accidental grain spills, harvested fields,etc. but if the CO says it's bait then it's bait. Another example would be mineral blocks.....how faraway doyou have to be, to not be hunting over mineral?

I will say that 99% of our CO's are real common sense individuals, but italways get down to interpretation.
