People who hunt with bait are often child molestors and shoplifters who also drown puppies in gunny sacks and smoke crack while worshipping Satan. They are also big fans of Dog the Bounty Hunter and Little People, Big World.[:@]
Now that's funny... or maybe it's the beer laughing! [8D]
Baiting is illegal in Iowa, but food plots are OK, at least to my knowledge. In MN feeders and mineral licks can be used up until two weeks before the start of deer season, then they must be taken down. Again, food plots are OK... the MN DNR even has two clover plots planted in the public land that abuts my brothers land, and I shot me deer last year across one of them.
My opinion of baiting is that I don't like it, but I'm not going to tell someone else not to do it if it's legal in your state. I also don't equate food plots with baiting, since the food plots are available to the deer 24/7. Most people who use bait set their feeders to throw food at set times. If your feeder throws food at 8am and 4pm every day, then that's baiting by my definition.
