It is illegal to use bait, salt, snares, dogs or other domesticated animals to take deer. Bait is considered any product that is transported into a hunting area and placed there for animal consumption. Baits can be in the form of salt, mineral blocks, prepared solid or liquid which is intended for the animal to eat. An area is considered to be baited for 10 days after the removal of the bait and any affected soil.

Food plots are legal in Indiana , baiting is not .
Any food item not considered part of a food plot must be removed no less than 10 days before the start of the season . This came straight from a CO .
