Urbantrapper,I am curious how the length of blacktail season means anything about baiting rules, could you please explain?Someone say..... "BAIT AND SWITCH"
I agree to an extent, but there are limits. For example, I support banning drones while hunting. If that is stabbing someone in the back, then so be it, I don't think they have any place in hunting. There could be guys that feel the same way about baiting. Without doubt, sitting over a pile of donuts or apples is a much different experience than spot and stalk or hanging out in a tree stand, so there is a possibility that some people have strong opinions against it.I don't see anything wrong with healthy discussion and debate, we have rules around hunting and I would think it perfectly normal and beneficial to have discussions about what those rules should be.It isn't always cut and dried, if you allow something new or take something away it may impact the number of tags issued or the length of season which would impact the other hunters that may not be into that thing. People have the tendency to only look at their season and not take into account others and how what they want impacts more than just themselves.
Baiting of deer and elk violates the concept of fair chase. Just my 2˘.
