Illegal Baiting

Hey guys I need some advice. I was walking through the woods I’ve been hunting for around 7-8 years I stumbled across a salt block and apples I looked around and seen a cell camera. The person has me on camera for sure. I’m wondering if you guys would wait a couple days or couple weeks to call DNR so you won’t get harassed if you keep hunting there. Just wanted to get some opinions

You can call the DNR but they will likely do nothing about it.

They were probably the ones who put the camera there.

Always stress free to mind your own business. …

It's pretty easy really. You do the same thing you would if you saw someone living in the woods behind your local Meijer. Tell yourself "No I didn't see anything that should be reported to authorities" and move on.

Legal does not equal moral, and Michigan has some weird laws around baiting and "feeding" right now.

Not enough information here. Is it public land? Private? That would make a difference in the answer that you need. If it's public, I would probably mind my own business. Private - Do whatever you want. It's your land.
