I don’t know I’ve never talked to him. You talk about him so much, I figured y’all where close. Next time you hang out with your buddy, you can ask him for us. I mean, no one has talked about him in this thread but you. 🤷‍♂️

Last year there was a fellow on MS Wildlife Commission got caught hunting turkey over corn.

Why don’t you just say why you want it legalized? That’s what these topics are supposed to be - a discussion.

The best take y’all ever had on DGT, was “at least they are trying something”. Man that was great and so thoughtful. Look what that got us. With no apologies from anybody.

I’m a novice compared to most of yall but can someone explain to why anyone would be interested in it being legal to bait for turkeys? N2trkys not calling you out but I’m just interested in your way of thinking.I’m not a purist but I am not interested in the least bit of hunting one over bait.

tell yall what , ill start raising turkeys and the ones who want to bait can just come pay me a $100 and kill a trophy tom . then you can post it all over the net and no one will be the wiser . if you gonna be sorry hell do it right cause killing them over bait is as sorry as you can get .

first off you twisted the hell out of what he said .

second if baiting did pass the limit would not stay at four a year .

were up to me decoys and TSS shot would be banned

Absolutely not. My gosh can’t we just go back to hunting again?

Ms wildlife comm not over corn, 5000 crickets, and I think Will reported him, too funny!

this is what happens when when someone poots on the school bus

The difference in hunting deer and turkeys over corn is that deer can also eat at night. A turkey is gonna eat the easiest thing he can find which makes killing him that much easier. If you got turkeys, you could sit over bait all day long and NEVER call and could limit out easily. To compare to the two is foolish.

Again, you’re the only one talking about it. Sorry that your buddy hurt your feelings so bad about it. Maybe you should address him about that the next time y’all hang out or something.

Outside of feelings and emotions, there’s no reason not to legalize it.

Doesn’t change what the bag limit is. What difference does it make how someone kills their turkey?

Folks can and do sit over chufa plots all day and NEVER call now. So what?

Because most people don’t put in the effort to plant chufas but damn near everyone will put out scratch feed if it’s legal. Whole lot less trouble and WAY easier. You wanna see a helluva lot more gobblers get killed, legalize baiting then.

People do it now, even with it illegal. You know why, it’s easier to kill a gobbler that way.

Dumb ass people never learn from history . I'm out

The big difference is the common sense part - its not about worrying about how they kill them - the point is - with corn now everybody will tag out - turkey becomes extinct
And people already break law a lot over turkeys - dont introduce corn as legal

I dont think we hav to every worry bout that in bama becoming legal

Leaving this discussion too 😀

You seem to be going on the very false assumption that the folks setting the limit expect every hunter to kill the season limit. No state anywhere expects that. The state of Alabama doesn't have enough turkeys for every hunter to kill 4.

The season limit has nothing to do with whether or not bait is allowed. I've never understood why you so often put those 2 things together. They are unrelated, and everyone else on this forum understands that.

He must be trolling because anybody with common sense would never advocate for legalized baiting for turkeys. That is just plain stupid and there is no other way to say it.
