I have only killed one bear, and that was over bait just North of Duluth MN in 1991. I would love to get a chance to hunt them other ways too. But baiting is no problem for me. When I hunted I had 3 days to get it done. A friend baited for two weeks before I arrived and I sat on a stand two days before I saw and killed my first bear. If there hadn't been a good chance of success I wouldn't have wasted my time and money. The locals have all the time to hunt anyway they want, but for me hunting out of state, I'm taking every legal advantage, and using every gadget I can afford to increase my advantage. Nobody wants to spend money for tags and travel and have no chance.
