Seriously....this topic comes up at LEAST 4-5 times every year. Does anybody ever consider using the search function?
I know! Man heres some proof: I asked wdfw through email and here's what the said.
Dear Mr. Berkompas,
Thank you for contacting the Department of Fish and Wildlife.
I don't see a previous email from you, so I apologize for the inconvenience and the delay.
It is not illegal to feed deer in Washington. If you intend to hunt, you would need to follow the restrictions under WAC 232-12-245. Bait cannot exceed 10 gallons and they cannot be placed within 200 yards from another bait site. For more information on baiting, visit: http://wdfw.wa.gov/about/regulations/2016/wsr_16-04-126.pdf.
Sincerely,
Wildlife Program
(360) 902-2515

It's a simple question. We don't need to beat him up, and we certainly don't need to relive those seven pages of results for baiting topics.
As others posted, the regs don't say "no baiting' anywhere. You just need to read the regs more carefully and fully to understand the intent.

Close, master baiters know that you can get more apples in each 5 gallon bucket if you cut the apples in half or in quarters. The deer appreciate it more as well. Not that I am admitting to being a master baiter, I'm just sayin'There has to be someone that can chime in on how to be a Master Baiter and get this one thrown into off topics.

There are several automotive type forums I frequent my current favorite is jeepforum.com some one took the time to add great posts in an organised manner to categories that were especially informative or complete DYI instructional. Something like that here could be done as well. Possibly a "best of" for each category of hunting. I think that forum is so well organised with information I haven't had to ask any questions, & I've used it to do lots of mods to my xj and trouble shoot problems.

I am amazed that the search function seems to be ignored on all kinds of subjects. One of my suggestions to make this forum better is some kind of organised best of threads on a subject.

The only problem with not asking any questions is we'd pretty much become a library instead of a discussion forum.

Wait we can hunt out of treestands? Does anyone have any experience with this? I'm thinking about starting a small food plot for blacktails. I plan on hunting the archery season. What baits should I use? Can I hunt on the islands?

Who says it's other hunters? I think it's a mix of concerned folks
I think it's funny how you people say, "hey guys don't bait because it just gives the antis ammunition..."
I've only ever been trashed for baiting by other hunters. Mostly on this site. :dunno:
Post by: Jonathan_S on September 16, 2016, 12:47:47 PM
Anyway, I guess I'll have to learn to hunt again someday. In the meantime, I'd better get back to butchering an elk that was not killed over bait :rolleyes:

That's because the overwhelming number of people in Washington are not hunters. Not saying they are anti hunters, they just aren't hunters.

Absolutely correct but how many of those votes were cast by people who don't ever think about hunting or baiting when they aren't reading some non descript initiative trash? Just because people vote a certain way on an issue doesn't make them an activist was my point.
Hound hunters hate baiters, still-hunters hate houndsmen, and stand hunters hate still hunters that walk through their setup :chuckle:

You'll be fine here. Baiting is a touchy subject. Good thing you asked because now you know the regs a little better. It's just another tool to whack and stack
