I wish the game wardens good luck finding my feeders because I am not going to pay $15 to put corn out. That is just plain stupid, have they lost their minds?

You shouldn't have to, no more than the dude with a feeder should have. The fee is ridiculous, if true.
83% of all statistics are made up.

Agree 100% anyone who does nothing but sit in a shooting house and watch a big open ag field should have to pay a $15 fee if the guy sitting in an hardwood bottom with a pile of corn 30 yards from him has to

Basically they've just made baiting legal, and free. You already can't get a GW to investigate a baiting complaint. Now all they gotta do is say, "oh he's got a permit" and never even make up an excuse for not going.

The hunting club drama this has the potential to create will be epic. You dang right!!! That was my first thought. 1 member putting out corn and another member finds and hunts it. And if he kills a deer over it....HOLY $&%#!!! Clubs will have to address this early and often. What about public land? GWs will be handling assault cases instead of baiting.  Well, here's how it worked in Florida... Let's say your hunting club is 3500 acres, with 20 members. Before the baiting law came into effect, everyone hunted the entire club...first come, first served. Baiting law is legalized. People put out feeders in "secret" spots, with plans to hunt them opening morning. Come opening morning, they get to the club, and their "secret" spot is already signed out...ie, someone has found the feeder and plans to hunt it. The fight ensues. A miserable hunting season for all club members is endured...lots of fighting over "my" spot. After season is over, club management develops a plan to avoid the same problems the next season. The club is broken up into "sections". Each member is given 2 small "private" sections in which they run their own private feeders. Members are only allowed to hunt their private section and club food plots. Some club members are overjoyed with their sections, some are just ok with theirs, and the other club members know they got the shaft. All members end up watching at the same two feeders all season long, year after year. Kids getting into hunting go from learning how to scout...finding food sources, identifying travel patterns, searching for scrape and rub lines, etc...to learning how to open a bag of corn, pour it into a feeder, and making sure the battery is fresh.

this is as big a load of crap as game check is.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I haven't read all the bill but it seems theres going to gray areas in this too.
Does this fee/tax/fine mean
1 it only covers the individual and one feeder
2 it will cover the complete property regardless of how many feeders.
3 it will cost you per feeder.
Looks like the old saying is appropriate "HERE WE GO AGAIN"

Obviously the argument isn't about the $15 but rather the whole stupid mess. Either make it legal, or enforce the law! Right now we have LOTS of illegal baiting with little fear of getting caught. Good luck getting a GW to invest any shoe leather for a baiting complaint.

Sounds like a fundraiser to me. If the money from feeder permits goes to pay for more GW’s or something of that nature….would you guys be ok with it then?

Pay the $15 and shut your pie holes. The DNR is broke as it is. Baiting needs to be legal and along with it, more antler restrictions and a shorter rifle season. I swear some folks will cry about everything

Here is another scenario for you. Club has 35 fields and lets say 20 members (number of fields and members irrelevant). 11 members pay the $15 corn fee and 9 don't because they disagree with it. The 11 members with "corn hunting" on their tag put feeders in every field and all the high traffic areas in the woods. Now the 9 members without the permit are restricted to hunting only the places that the other 11 didnt put out corn.
Will track deer in Marengo, Greene, Sumter, Wilcox, Perry, Hale counties.
