Men Caught With Illegal Bait In VT  VT Dept. of Fish and
Wildlife, Bear Hunting Magazine  The Vermont Department of Fish
and Wildlife says two Connecticut men are facing charges they
used bait to hunt bear, which is illegal in that state.  Vermont
game wardens located a large bait pile of apples and acorns in
Jay, Vermont that was coated with an attractant. The two men
were arrested after wardens began watching the bait pile when
the two came to sit in a tree stand over the bait. A number of
other bait piles were found near a camp the men were using.  If
convicted, they could get sixty days in jail and lose their
right to hunt in that state of Vermont for three years.  Go Back
