I don't know the true answer either but I'm sure a hunter sitting over a bait may deter some animals. Plus if a hunter wants to shoot a wolf the hunter would naturally put the bait out in a visible line of site. Example a frozen lake a large open cut block. The way I bait I put it in a real thick bush so I have lots to hang snares off of. If I were trapping and a fellow was sitting over one of my baits I would not be very happy.
But regardless
This all comes down to RESPECT which seems to be on a downward trend in the outdoors these days. IMO if you want to bait to shoot wolves contact the RMFA holder if you cannot contact him talk to the fish and wildlife and make them aware of the situation and the area.
If you talk to an active trapper he might be able to strike a deal with you. He might be an outfitter and want the wolves gone and tell you where they run. scratch my back I'll scratch yours.
