Cardeer siys it all!

Be very careful if you put any slat licks or mineral blocks out. We had a game warden on opening day of rifle season walk right up to one of our guys and held a rifle on him and order him down from his stand. He arrested him for hunting over bait. We had a mineral block out about 75-100 yds away that we removed from the woods 30 days before the season per game laws. The game warden walked over to where it used to be and scraped the tree stump/soil and took a sample and said there was residue there. WELL OF COURSE THERE WAS RESIDE WHEN IT RAINS IT GETS WASHED INTO THE SOIL AND WILL BE THERE FOR QUITE SOME TIME. Resulted in a fine and 1 year suspension of license. Not to mentioned we had a freind for the next 5 yrs.

You see we are from out of state and I guess 1 of the locals saw this as a way to get us out of the woods. WRONG!
