General Discussion / My feelings on Baiting.
« on: December 04, 2007, 06:55:09 AM »
Why is it we cant Bait? Ok Cwd and all the neighbor issues on private land. I kinda think that is a lil far fetched, I so wish I could bait cause well, I do it to begin with. Not with Deer anymore but when I am fishing I have yet to see a guy on a public lake come right up and say what kinda worm is that, will it cause the fish to swim upside down? or shake around in the water and I dont think you should use that, or is Fishing a lil bit more ok to Bait? How many Millions of fish would you infect with a bad worm in water, or bad minnow? If for say you was fishing on Lake Michagan? Hummm? Ok This year lets see if the lil mom and pop bait shops can survive if the Deer hunters that didnt Bait this year didnt buy crawlers or minnows Cause they cant bait their hooks. We all have been baiting for years fishing and now lets stop that too. I dont ever think that will happen, so why with deer? When we have only 9 day gun hunting season and Fishing is almost year round come on its a farse. Ok Let me get my facts strait you can bait this year in some areas of the state I know that but hmmm? Isnt fishing all over the state? So what about hunting? And the New rules for dumping your minnows How will that work I dont get all this I wish people didnt get so up set If I pour out 2 gallons of corn in one spot and shoot a deer off it. But those same people will take their kids out on grandpas Pontoon and have bought over 1 pound of leaches and 4 dozen crawlers an 5 dozen fatt heads go fishing for a weekend 2 days keep the fish they catch in a bucket and then eat them isnt that what hunters did in the Past? Go out on grandpas land with a baited hook and then hang the deer from a tree after harvest and eat it? I think it comes down to those kinda people not using live bait to fish and having to try it that way to see what a differance it is with a plain hook. Or maybe they are fishing in things that plain and simple they shouldnt get cought in!
Ok I have been hunting Some public land since I was 12 years old. I am 29 now its in Juneau County. I on opening Day had a Juneau county forestry guy tell me I Couldnt hunt there it was closed to hunting! Well He was who he said he was and I believed him But asked him this why was there no signs posted prior to hunting and called the county forestry Dept. They said it was open to hunting and (I was caller 13th caller that day and the Dnr warden Named Webber also ) he was wrong in doing what he did and he was corected that Monday morning but he had ruined my opening day for 2007. What can I do? I also learned he left a phew hunters alone to hunt the rest of the Day there and later that After noon while looking for more public land to hunt there was his truck and the same hunters he left on the land where I was opening morning talking to him Hummm kinda funny they all knew each other! Anyone have any Ideas? what else to do? I can hunt there an just dont want that to happen agian next year to me or anyone else!
