Would you say this is for baiting bear?
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.

Ran into a few of them on Hancock Kapowsin. They used to bait them and let you know where the stations were.

How far away from an illegal bait station would you need to hunt to not be considered as hunting over a bait station?

All I can tell ya is to just do not go near one .. one time we were bow hunting and a buddy had apples out for deer and someone saw them and called the warden and long and behold as they went to check it their happened to be a bear on it .. they waited for him to come to the stand and ask him if he was baiting bear .. he said no but after they checked him they told him if you shoot the bear your be hunting illegal ... once the tree huggers hear of instances like this it will be the end of baiting deer too !!!! :yike:

It is pretty obvious what we all see here. Look at the scratch marks on the barrel.  Oh....wait, I have figured it out. Somebody was thoughtfull enuf to put out a secured snack stash for Bigfoot.... :dunno:

Timber companies feed bears in this fashion so that they don't eat their trees, at least on the west side.  Don't know about up in your neck of the woods though.  If it were on the west side I'd say don't jump to conclusions but from what I've heard bears peeling trees isn't very common on the east side so it probably is an illegal bear bait. I'd call it in. :dunno:
