I don't bait and it is illegal here. I disagree with baiting/food plots in general due to an alteration in habitat designed to lure animals, that is not to say that when I hunt in eastern MT I won't shoot a deer or antelope in a wheat field or I won't pattern elk around their feeding habits. But if baiting/hunting over a food plot is how you do it, I won't look at you as an inferior hunter, but one with different tactics.
