Bait
In Georgia the law states that you have to be at least 200 yards away and out of the line of sight of bait. My question is what would be considered bait? Of course corn, apples and the like are, but would new supplements like Comere Deer, deer cane or even a mineral lick be considered bait?
My position is that anything that is thrown out and not naturally grown on the land is considered bait. My roomate and I got into a debate about it and i just wanted to see what yall thought about it. Not trying to start a thread about whether or not baiting is ethical or not, just want to know what yall would consider bait. Sorry if it causes a problem. Thanks fellas. |
RE: Bait
It doesn't matter what we consider bait but rather what your state DNR consider as baiting! You should check your local regs, if vague call them to clarify what the "definition of bait" means to them via the letter of the law.
Then no debating onde' baitin' issue....:D |

RE: Bait
What good is it gonna do if you gotta be that far away from it ?
Here in Michigan we can use carrots , sugar beets apples and corn but we gotta spread it out in a ten foot circel , there's nothing saying how far we have to be from it . |

They can not proscute past the arm of the law so if you know the laws and are within them it makes discretion moot. Outside the context of the law your opening your self up for trouble b/c you are in fact breaking laws which means your liable for your actions and hedging on "discretion" going in your favor. MAKE THE CALL and put your mind and debate at ease. |

RE: Bait
So if it is not spread on the ground, by that definition, it is not bait. ;) |

RE: Bait
Wait a minute here... so in Indiana, if I wanted to put out carrots or apples or acorns or something of THAT nature I could do it? I'm confused. I thought we couldn't put ANYTHING out that wasn't natural to that habitat, as in growing naturally???
I am not an advocate of baiting anyway, but that threw me for a loop, wha does that statement from the IDNR mean? Carrots, apples, acorns, etc... are okay? |
