I am definatly not against it. I consider baiting anything that draws a animal in that was not naturally there. But if I had the choice between bait and no bait I wouldnt use bait, let me explain . . .
Well I am going to use a fishing example to prove my point. I fish with a fly rod, one because I like doing things the old way, and two because I am actually more successful with it in most cases. How is that possible? Because alot of folks are using hooks and worms to catch there fish. Or hooks and minnows or powerbait, etc. So when they see something they have never seen before, I.e my homemade fly, they pounce.
Same thing seems to happened around here for hunting. Everyone in my vacinity, around my house especially baits. So there is so many different piles of corn everywhere, the deer have tons of food to choose from, it has gotten to the point where they are only coming to bait at night. So my solution is to set up on funnels or heavy trails.
When fishing it is the same fish, and I am hunting the same deer. I just choose to hunt without it, because I think it works better for me. Plus that and I am broke, cant afford bait, and about 85% of my hunting is on public land, and we cant use bait except for private. But within the other 15% of my hunting, I just wouldnt choose bait. For those of you that use it, and use it well. Excellent. We are hunters pursuiting our quarry, and we want meat. Even the indians wouldnt say heck no I aint gonna bait because it is easier, they would bait, and they would have fuller bellies for it . . .
