I used this rainy day to scout a small piece of public land in Sussex County. I have hunted it a few times in the past and have never seen anyone during archery season. (The locals drive it twice a day during 6 day firearm).
So today I get there and start walking around. I find a bait pile, then another then 10 more.The bait was in an area that spanned out about 200 yards. They where mot placed by any trees that you could get up to with a climber. Maybe its in preparation for the gun season.Its the exact spot I hunted the last 2 years. Would it be wrong to hunt it knowing someone else has spent the time to bait it. I know its public so I can do what I want. But should I look elsewhere?
