They are buying millet at the end of Summer. They are using it to bait, not plant.

A landowner down the street from me used to bait. He just had hands cut open bags of wheat and push it out the back of pickups onto a gravel road. Close to town too. Dude must have had some greenjeans protection type connections. He never hunted Sunday, so we would sneak out there and have one guy yell "truck!" when he finally got off his arse to drive out there in reaction to our shots.

Asking questions is one thing, pulling CC records is another. Plus, it's perfectly legal to "plant" millet and hunt over it right now, so long as you didn't also "plant" opening weekend too. How would green jeans know the difference?

Draw a square 12" X 12" and count the seeds in that square. There is a number and if you exceed that number the field is considered baited. This was told to me by a federal warden back in the 90s

That wouldn't implicate someone just buying millet right now. They could be using the legal amount in "accordance with standard agricultural practices" or however they have it worded. Where people get in trouble is the second season when they freshen up the field, but I'd imagine there are at least a few people who didn't hunt the opener who will spread seed for the next. If it's illegal to plant millet after a certain date then that's news to me, my understanding is you just can't do it twice.

It's not that hard to deduce who is farming and who is baiting though, random guy comes in and buys 2 bags a week for 3 weeks in a row. That's baiting. Regular farmer comes in and buys a pallet once, that's likely farming.
Most guys that bait, ain't that smart about it.

Yeah the guy coming in three times is fishy, but my main point here is there's nothing shady about buying a couple sacks right now. You could do that and be perfectly legal. You don't have to be actually farming millet, you have to act in accordance with farming millet. It's ridiculous but that's the law.*
*thats the law as I understand it, if I'm wrong I'd love to know why cause a couple doves ain't worth the hassle to me

This is simply not true all around

I own a feed store in Ga. We don't give out that info without a warrant. Haven't been asked either.

what a load of shite. There ain't a gov hand anywhere this gd motivated over the lives of a few doves.
Posted on 9/25/17 at 8:46 pm to lsufan1971
That's a big stretch. Sounds more like someone has loose lips and ran their mouth about baiting or how many birds they had and drew attention

Simple. Don't buy millet right now, buy wheat. It is standard agricultural practice to plant wheat right now.

This is correct I've seen the square. They carry one looks like a picture frame
