F poachers. I play by the rules, so should they. Baiting = unsportsmanlike.

For the most part, I agree with your statement. But, bait would be nice if used for bears. With our stupid law of not shooting bears out of a group, it begs the question of how long do you have to wait to make sure the bear is not in a group? According to the DEC, regardless of whether the bear you shot was alone, it wasn't, if it was nursing cubs. Not having to hurry a shot would aid in being able to determine if a bear was indeed alone.
Yeah that's a bit of a catch-22 alright. But the answer is to lobby DEC to give us some better guidance. I still don't think baiting for bears is fair.
