    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    He still checks in from time to time on this thread since he has such a vested interest in it. Maybe some day he will start up another account!

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    You should do a little digging into the game and fishes intercept feeding program and state funded food plots.. rules for thee but not for me.. Charlie bahnson, the game and fish wildlife vet claims years, so how would a foot plot be any different keeping deer coming back to a small area year...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Seems like a few members on here that commented up here that disagreed with an opinion so they censored him with the banned button, would probably have a different opinion then that šŸ˜‰

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    The NDBA is a group of dedicated archers working to improve and protect the rights and privileges of bowhunters and to promote and expand the sport of archery in North Dakota. That's the mission statement I have pulled from the NDBA website.. Taking a stance on a tool that a vast majority of...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    I would be willing to bet GST, who has been permanently banned from this site for awhile, does care about your ability to bait, and will be down to testify for more then just this 1 bill. If you knew much back story on him like I do as he is my father, but can't defend himself on here because...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Do food plots and intercept feeding programs make deer congregate in times of the year that they aren't? They say CWD lives for years in the soil.. so wouldn't having a food plot in the same spot year after year cause deer to congregate at times of the year when they wouldn't be, at close knit...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Our family remembers this from the last time the game and fish tried to send this through the legislature and they backed it. Haven't been members since.

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Absolutely agree with this. In my opinion, and let this be known it is an opinion... The reason the Game and Fish is using the Unit by Unit approach to this versus the statewide ban is try to limit the amount of negative blow back that is received. There are a lot of people staying neutral on...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Except that's not what happening. As the baiting ban increases in time in places, so have the positives showing that the baiting ban hasn't done anything to slow the spread. If you want to talk about wiping out a deer herd and starting with a new healthy herd, where is the accountability for...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    "Bills of Dubious origin making game regulations instead of appointed agencies"? What about the 2 previous times that the game and fish department has tried to pass a baiting ban through the legislature and it was voted down because "We the People" stood up, voiced our concerns and there was no...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Some of the biggest backers of this bill are organizations that help disabled hunters have the ability to go into the field and hunt. A bait pile definitely isn't the only way to kill a deer, but can be critical in the start of a youth into the archery world. The interaction they can have with...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    I'm unsure of deer counts in that unit. If deer counts have decreased due to increased tag numbers, but the positives have increased at the steady rate they have with the baiting ban in place for the amount of time it has been.. Any baiting restriction "science" the game and fish trys to use...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Look in state at 3F2... the unit with the longest bait ban, but highest prevalence percentage... The Game and Fish is choosing to ignore these levels now but moving away from testing in this unit because the data collected doesn't back the "science" they are currently trying to use

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Game and Fish tag numbers aren't always dependent on deer populations I don't believe, it has something to do with the management of a deer herd, right or wrong.

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    This is not a private property rights issue. This is an issue about overreach by a government agency that is supposed to look out for we the people of the state of ND, but instead ignored what the people wanted and got denied through the legislative process.

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    This Bill is introduced into the legislature because of overreach by the ND G&F and a lack of data backing the topic. They have tried to implement a state wide baiting ban through the legislature in the past and it was voted down both times. Since they were unable to ban baiting through the...
