Well it was an initiative that made it illeagle to hound hunt and bait for bears so my guess it would take an initiative to make it illeagle
i agree it would be a great idea, i loved huntn bear every year when we could bait, i really liked just watchn them, the cubs could make you bust out laughing and mama bear would take them and haul but and sometimes the cubs would come up your tree or jump in the blind with ya if you do get an initiative started and need help getn signatures i will gladly lend you my time, it would be a win win, wdfw gets money we get to bait even if its by permit only, and some reports that i have heard is bear numbers are up state wide, when they took hounds and baiting away it took the only real methods of keeping the numbers in check..... the only thing i fear is that it will take a politician getn attacked by a bear before we see a change, but i hope not.like i said i am willing to work to get whatever we need just point me in the right direction
well damn thats shoots my idea all to hell there has to be a way, i know the what ever money they get from baiting permits they can give it to the state parks so they dont have to keep thrown crap in are faces about how they dont have the budget to keep them running
I think our focus needs to be on preserving what we have, not what we had...............
Since the spring hunt is for damage control, I think all spring tag holders should be allowed to bait.
