Baiting blacktail for late archery

[BlacktailBowhunter]

We had 2 different bucks in last night. A fork in horn that I have on cam came in around 3:50 and was there feeding for about 5 minutes with no shot for my wife. The wind shifted and he must have just caught a whiff because he paused and then walked off.

20 minutes later, a spike and a half came in and hung out behind a small fir tree for about 10 minutes before offering a quartering away shot and my wife hit a small tree. We thought she hit the buck until she found her arrow in the tree. We were high fiving and everything LOL.

Can you bait in the 510 area?

Pretty sure you can bait anywhere you want to, well, maybe not in the neighbor's yard....

I was under the impression that we couldn't bait in Washington. I'll have to check the regs right now.

Don't waste your time checking... just don't shoot a bear over it.

Alrighty, thanks

Alrighty, thanks

Seriously though, maybe there are some local restrictions but as far as I know, and I have never seen anything contrary on here in all the baiting discussions, private and state land are not restricted.
