I completly agree with you here. I don't mind baiting where it is legal, but I def. agree with having a limit to how much you can bait. I few years ago I saw a picture of a bait pile in Michigan that made me sick. A hunting camp was tracking a deer onto a neighbors property and came across a bait pile with, and Im not exagerating, 20 pumpkins, 300 sugar beats, 50 pds of corn, and hundreds of Radishes and apples. It was horrible. I think if baiting was reintroduced, it should be limited to a small amount just to get deer to stop for a few seconds. Maybe a few apples, sugar beats and such. I really think what they should do is allow corn but it has to be spread over a large area and limited to a few gallons (like the former law). With apples and Sugar beats, deer can have a bite then leave the rest for another deer to possibly transmit any diseases. With shelled corn, deer really can't have a bite and leave the rest for another deer, thus less likely to spread any disease. Kind of like acorns and smaller natural deer foods.

The problem right now is the Michigan DNR is so understaffed I hear they are having problem enforcing any baiting laws right now and really just going for poachers and people who are more of a danger (Road hunters and such) This is just what I have heard though.
