C'mere deer

my buddy that lives in Chilliwack say he cant keep the deer off of it once they find it....he now has a hole the size of a kiddie pool from the deer digging at it
 
Hey you guys, if you are talking about using bait for hunting deer, it is strictly illegal in BC, at least.
 
You want to point out the regulation that prohibits baiting deer in BC.

you know what? i think you're right. i don't think baiting deer is illegal in BC. i can't find anything retaining to baiting anywhere in the regs. i was sure it was illegal. but i can't find baiting anywhere, for any species. guess i was wrong. i'll keep looking and get back on this.

If it was illegal in BC,all those guys sitting on their grain piles around Fort St John would be really suprised!:D Mur

:D good point. however, i would think that it wouldn't constitute as baiting the deer if said grain pile is a natural farm occurance. grain is being put in a pile for later use. the deer happen to come along and eat. the hunter says, huh deer come here. cool. i'll grab my gun and shoot em." same as if i came accross a natural meadow where deer congregated.

i'm not against baiting, just to clear it up. :)
 
Note there is NO prohibition on "baiting" ungulates in BC.

BC Hunting Regulations said:
bear may not be hunted by placing bait or by using a
dead animal or part of it as bait

You should also know it’s unlawful:

I tried C'mere Deer and there was no sign of deer although I have a pic off my trail cam of a yote pissing on the pile of it......LMAO

I swapped the C'mere Deer for Deercain and got 9 pics of a 230lb+ 13 point typical after 3 days.

I also know guys who swear by C'mere Deer saying they cant keep up with how fast the deer eat it....my response was you probably have a huge pack of yotes pissing on it and its getting washed away....lol....

anyhoo there are many supplements to attract deer and best thing to do is try a few and pick the one that works in your area put out 3-4 different types with in a few feet of each other and put a trail cam on them you will find out quick which ones work best.

FYI: Beef feed with molasis from my local co-op has worked the best deer just love it and its also very good for them.

It has always been in the regulations that you can't use bait, but in this years regs I can't find it, either.
However, on page 3 it gives the definition of bait.---

"-means anything, including meat, cereals, cultivated crops, restrained animal or any manufactured product or material, that may attract wildlife and includes plastic or other imitation foods, but does not include a decoy as described under these regulations."

The regulations we are looking at is only a synopsis of the wildlice act. Prohibiting baiting will be in the act, I am sure, and that is what counts.
It would appear they have made a boo-boo by leaving it out, but we all know bear baiting is a no-no, and even that doesn't appear to be there.

No it hasn't.

Yes that is a definition NOT a regulation.

Show us the proof that baiting deer is not legal.



......... but we all know bear baiting is a no-no, and even that doesn't appear to be there.


Bear baiting is not legal and the prohibition IS IN THE REGULATIONS!
 
Firstly, I can't find in this years synopsis where it is illegal to bait bears.

Secondly, I have emailed the environment ministry, so I will post the answer I get.

Thirdly, there has been no change in the regulations. On the opening page, the table of contents, it plainly states that we are reading the synopsis of the regulations. And, if there is any discrepancy between this synopsis and the regulations, the law is what is in the regulations.
It further states that it is up to the sportsman to make sure of the regulations, that the synopsis is only a guide.
