Quick answer would be wrong! :)  Baiting for deer and elk is perfectly legal, your good to go with the mineral blocks.

I searched the hunting regs and RCW's no law that prohibits it, except for baiting bears is illegal.  You know others will say it is unethical.

I bought a gallon of that C'mere Deer product last week, I'll give that a try; my friends also tells me to try peanut butter and they say they get a good response.

If you took the WDFW survey :twocents: you would know that it is legal to bait deer and elk. They asked for input on making it illegal :ban: so if your morals alow you to do it, do it NOW before they make it illegal :police:

Backwoods-boy, Your wearin' me out man.   Relax.

Your going to be shot mentally before your hunt begins. :bash:

kirkl...make sure you don't trip over a salt block while you're out there.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
