Whats your thoughts on this Curt since you started this post?
Yes, I figured everyone that hunts big game every year would get the same notice. I doubt anyone in utah does what came to my mind when baiting is brought up, like using corn or similar food type baits but I did not think salt was considered bait, because ranchers use salt blocks all the time for their cattle. What about stacks of alfalfa? Don't get me wrong here, I'am in no way saying that any rancher would use either salt or alfalfa to lure in big game animals to shoot them but what about hunters? If hunters are not the ones to put the salt blocks out but happen to find a salt block on public land while hunting a big game animal and one happens to be there, would that be considered baiting, if they shoot it? Or would the proper course be to back off and not shoot the animal? What if you took the shoot and got it, then discover the salt block, should you turn yourself in?
