Disagree, laws and regs should NOT be up to the officer. In this case in sight or out of sight. I agree with 9er, welcome back BTW.
Where does this leave the old reg? Lets say you have "feed" out and are 100+ yards away and out of sight. The day the last grain is gone you move closer than 100 yards, has the "feed" now magically become "bait" because you haven't waited 10 days since last grain is gone per old reg? crazy confused
IMO,They should make it legal or illegal and quit playing.



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.
