OK so I copied the following from the Alabama Hunting and fishing digest, Hunting and Fishing Regulations $ Info page under Prohibited meathods of hunting.
It is illegal to: 22.Hunt using poison, explosives or chemicals to include deer blocks, molasses blocks, mineral blocks, chemical licks, and similar products. Deer may be hunted over plain salt licks containing no other minerals or chemicals.
There have been may threads on here about using Di-Cal / Trace mineral salt / feed salt for salt lick sites and I know most hunting clubs around use some variation of this mixture. So is it legal to hunt in the "Area" of these licks? I know there will still be traces of the mineral and Di-cal in the ground once season is in and I would hate to see someone get a ticket for it.
The Law in the Alabama code states you CAN NOT hunt over plain salt. For years the DCNR has condoned hunting over plain salt. Last year they OKd hunting over Trophy Rocks. Not by law or reg just Comish's word. Trophy Rock is a weak version of di-cal and trace mineral mix. I guess all we gotta do to be legal is throw a Trophy Rock in our di-cal/ trace mineral hole and we're legal. The salt in all cases is the attractent. Someone gets caught hunting over it with deep pockets and GW and courts push it, can you say "winning" in Alabama Supreme Court.
49er 'll have lot's to say on this and I'll say he's right on this one.
