Is bear baiting the worst kept secret?

[rtspring]

Why was this even posted on here? Are you looking for points?  So he said she said! 

Am I going to stand on a four way stop sign and call in 911 for each and everybcar that doesnt come to a complete stop..

We should mind our own business..  Illegal poching wasting meat and just taking horns? Damn right, hang their butts!!!

A guy maybe baiting a bear? I got a whole lot of better things to do! Its a stupid law, always will be.  Does it make it right? No!

But neither does the guy bulding s shed without a permit in his own backyard!!

[h20hunter]

Nope. Not looking for points, no looking for anything. I just found it funny that she was so casual about it. Pardon me for being curious and wondering if it was so common that it was possible that among locals it is the worst kept secret.

Next time I'll get the allmighty Rtspring permission before posting.

I used to have a room mate who was an Oregon game LEO.  He told me that girlfriends and daughters made up for more than 50% of the leads leading to poaching and game violations.  I thought it was amusing in your story the girlfriend spilled the beans.  I'd think if you weren't going to tell your girlfriend it was illegal you shouldn't be telling her you are doing it at all

I was thinking the EXACT same thing. If your going to do something wrong  the LAST person you would want to tell is a woman... Especially one that makes coffie and small talks the whole day away!

Whether bobs wife, girlfriend or daughters says anything about baiting bear is not the key factor here, its about, is baiting bear happening? Yep it is, but whats the big deal about posting this?  Its hearsay.  I can gurantee you someone on here has forwarded this to the gamies!!!  Meanwhile people are out POACHING.    Yep it is very common! So is people driving drunk, speeding, jaywalking, lets all call the cops everytime we hear something that may or may not be true..

The almighty? Nope, just got better things to do than spread gossip.. 

[h20hunter]

Of course it is hearsay. It't not a big deal at all. Simply curious. You don't like it move on, don't comment, don't read it. You don't like that I'm interested or it doesn't meet your approval of post worthy or not, tough, like I said, don't comment, just move on.

[rtspring]

This coming from a guy who has derogatory comments on many of my previous posts?    Now Im suppose to move on and not comment on gossip rumors?  So whats a forum about ? Read only? 

Im sure that everything you do is by the book? Right?  So if a guy heard your wife say you were baiting would you want it spread on the internet? Probably not. 

You should go hunting.  Im out

Easy boys.....

You may chose to comment or not. I suppose you are commenting on this thread simply because you have not like comments posted in previous theads of yours?

I do my very best to do things by the book.

I've not specefied anyone nor have I singled anyone out regarding this poll. As clearly stated, it simply piqued my interest.

If you have found my comments derogatory I suppose I leave it up to the mods and Dale to make that decision on whether I should have them taken down or not.

Yes, I should go hunting. However, work sometimes gets in the way.

"I'm out" Not a problem Your Highness

Sorry Wood.....I'm simply tired of His Highness and his high and mighty attidude. Delete the thread, delete the comments you wish, not a problem. I simply will not be bullied.

^  Obviously someone who doesn't care about the future of hunting!!

Bear baiting is poaching last time I checked.

Not true.  Killing a bear over bait is poaching...  Just baiting, while illegal is not poaching.

I've seen some bare baiting on rivers. A few of them were pretty ugly. They should have kept it secret.
