Baiting on tribal land?

[livnlife]

I was just watching a show on outdoorman network and they were hunting blackies over bait on the Quinault reserve
ation and with the option for a second tag in one day. So, are reservations exempt from WDFW rules/regulations for baiting and # of tags?

they have been baiting them for hundreds of years and putting other tribes on them for trading furs and such ... It's there tribal rights !  we all should be able to bait it's a stupid law !

It's total BS that they can bait and not the rest of "us". You should see what they do to the elk herds too.

They are a separate nation. We can't tell Canada or Mexico how to regulate hunting either.

Sum of the best elk hunting in Washington are in areas where it is rumored the Indians wiped them out.   

As for the bear baiting.  Pretty much answered above.  Separate nation not under state law.  If their citizens voted to make it illegal it would be.

But we don't have THEM running all over our country doing whatever they like, killing our animals, taking goverment money, sending money back to.......................wait a minute.?     Okay, not Canada

Separate Nation?? I've never seen a tribal air force, army or navy. How does this nation protect itself? How does this "nation" employ it's people? Tribal nation dept. of highways,  etc.??  Just asking..........

  Damn!  Pretty Much Says It All.  Good Point.

The tribes have been wiser than the state for keeping baiting open on their lands, good for them, it wasn't the tribes that voted out baiting in the rest of Washington, we need to be upset with the urban I-5 corridor for voting out baiting and hounds.
