I see no difference between the two .
Here you can legally plant food plots , but you can't bait or hunt over salt blocks . I'm planning to plant some fruit and nut trees this year , and I gotta admit that the thought of deer browsing among them crossed my mind . My wife wanted a feeder set up out in the front yard so that she and the grandbabies can watch the pretty deer and turkeys feed , and yes I bought her one , but she has forbidden hunting there anyway and so has DNR now that a "bait dispeser" has been installed . What an ethical dilema for me .

I wouldn't bait if it were legal , but I'll be as good as planting some .
