Bird bait

Post by Peacefulherbs »

How about bait for birds?

Scenario: I'm chilling in the swamp when some quackers come to visit. I'd like to be able to throw out some bread or cheese its.

I see what he`s saying, but find it very hard to believe that they will actually implement it

Well, they could implement it by putting Cheez-Its and other cracker based baits for waterfowl in the store and selling them for gm$'s. I use all sorts of crackers when I'm hunting waterfowl in real life. I just go to my local bird observatory, set up a quick ground blind, throw some Cheez-Its or Wheat Thins out about 10 yards or so and wait for some unsuspecting little duckies or honkers to come and eat them. Then BAM! Hit em with my slingshot. Thats how its done up here in Samskanchewan anyways.

The ducks on the river at my local picnic spot are quite partial to chips or plain bread. But it is illegal to kill them in a public area.
