Just because the number of permits are up doesn't mean the number of people baiting are up! Has nothing to do with corn , everything to do with extended doe season!
I get that you’re just trolling but here’s the problem with that line of thinking……Looking at zone c it would appear that limiting doe days probably wont fix the issue…..So we could go in and limit everyone on doe days and it do absolutely nothing to change things…..The problem is that now there are more properties will the ability to influence harvest rates…..That kid in Tuskegee can now legally shoot 2 or 3 or even 10 out of his uncles back yard on a 2 acre lot
I had another situation this year where a guy hunting 20 acres called me to track a deer he shot over his feeder…..The deer ran across the county road onto his neighbors place…He knew the neighbors so we had permission to keep tracking it……When we got over there the neighbor had a feeder set up as well not 300 yards from the hunter’s feeder…..Well, about 3 weeks later I get another call from the hunter’s OTHER neighbor across the creek on the same side of the road. He had yet another feeder he was hunting over not 300 yards from the first one in the other direction…..So you had 3 different hunters killing deer off of feeders within about 700-800 yard circle.
Corn has really increased the ability for small properties to influence harvest rates
