But, he also stated that if the bait site can be seen from the hunters position at any distance, you’re in the wrong and will be charged. So if you’ve got your trail camera bait site setup and you’re blind or position in anywhere that the bait site can be seen, you’re done. And they’ll hammer you on it.

And if you think outfitters aren’t baiting...
I found a site like that... called the fish cops and told him when to find the poachers sitting on their bait. Told the cop exactly where to walk in to find the spot. He walked out the next day... 2K worth of fines for them and 400 bucks in my pocket for reporting it.

If you find big game bait and you know it’s being hunted over, it’s easy to take care of the problem.
