The way I read it, yes, if you opt to use bait in a legal manner.
Amazing that one will be able to buy themself out of being illegal.
Really?
You didn't really think about that before you posted it, did you?
Yep I did. And from what I hear from some on here, you included, there is a lot of illegal baiting going on now. So yes, if passed the State will let one by their way out of being illegal and make the legal illegal if they don't by their way out because somebody thought that corn was the magic bullet to kill a deer.
You have always been able to feed. The illegal part has been hunting over it. That said, if the law becomes less restrictive, why do you need to buy anything. Keep doing what you are doing being legal and not hunting over feed and you are fine. Where is it that you "must" buy a permit? A better argument would be just to go ahead and say I just don't want others to be able to do it or this is a screwed up bill and it should just be legal to start with.
On that note, i bought my way out of being illegal last week. I bought myself a renewal of my driver's license. The horror of that.
