baiting big game

[billythekidrock]

5 pages?  C'mon people. You really going to let this troll get you riled up? Forgive his ignorance / entitled attitude and put your energy into someone or something positive.

It is a slow Sunday......

Hawks don't play until 1.  I need something to fill the time.

Pretty sure it is at 1:25 so you have a little more time to kill.

[Bigshooter]

So I have an opinion, CONSTRUCTIVE arguments are given to change my opinion, I "change" my opinion and now I'm backpedaling?

Timing is everything. 

Changing your stance only after getting called out by your prior post asking for recipes does shine a suspicious light on it.


So now I have to be against baiting. I cannot agree with anyone on here as to why baiting should be maintain and legal.

You start a thread saying it should not be legal.

Post responses calling people arrogant for not agreeing with your opinion.

Someone finds a post where you asked how to make up baits in another thread.

Then you claim "Devil's Advocate" and announce your stance has been suddenly been changed.

Hard to really know where you stand and what your true feelings are...

Got to read the entire post. I originally posted this topic in response to the thread telling everyone toemail the wdfw and keep baiting legal. the thread starter told anyone who does not agree to not post any response. I was told in this thread that timing is everything. I can't suddenly agree to maintain baiting soooo I have to maintain my opposition to baiting. With sportmen like bigshooter I can totally see why we are divided, if someone does not agree resort to immature jokes.
This is the first state I have lived in that allows baiting. I never baited before and never will and I no longer care what other trigger pullers do in the woods.

Mom someone is making jokes about me.

So you are not even from our state and moved in and think you have the right to tell guys that have been doing something for generations they can't anymore  Move back to where you came from.

Not back to where he came from.  Go straight to California you will fit right in.

Pregame man pregame. 

So the game before the pregame would be pregame game?

Don't get technical with me.  It's killing my good mood.

Really bigshooter, so much for professionalism. Good to know you can handle the responsibility of carrying a loaded firearm into the woods.

Maybe you should try and get that banned too.

It will never happen, unfortunately clowns will forever be allowed in the woods

kinda  like calling the kettle black

Malibu is awesome 

Only in Pina colada's.

If ya wanna bait, then bait.
If ya don't, then don't.
Don't tell others they can't.

If ya wanna own a gun, own a gun.
If ya don't, then don't.
Don't tell others they can't.

Some of you people are as bad as the gun grabbing morons in this country. Mind ur own damn business and do ur own thing. That being said, I don't hunt over bait, but someday I may want to?

Thank you, Lewy.  That is exactly how I feel.

Somehow people keep killing mature deer and elk in Montana without the use of baiting.

I am not for or against baiting, I don't have a hand in the game.

I tried baiting when I lived in Washington. In my experience the time, energy, and money spent on baiting was not worth it. Baiting did not increase my success rate at all.
Spending the time and money scouting and learning new areas instead of baiting did however increase my success rate.

I agree except lets not compare success in wa vs. success in montana as apples to apples........

Getting technical was tiring...or maybe it was this thread. Took a nice nap...and missed the first couple drives.

Here is the Boone and Crockett definition of fair chase:

FAIR CHASE, as defined by the Boone and Crockett Club, is the ethical, sportsmanlike, and lawful pursuit and taking of any free-ranging wild, native North American big game animal in a manner that does not give the hunter an improper advantage over such animals.

Please note the part about "improper advantage" as it might pertain to baiting.
