“However, Maine had a lot of hunters, trappers, and fishermen who did a lot of things that people not engaged in these activities might consider unfair. In his weekly column, one outdoor writer asked: Was putting out decoys and using calls to lure in ducks and turkeys fair? What about planting clover or using sexual attractants to bring in deer? Was treeing raccoons with hounds different from treeing bears? Was baiting, trapping, and then boiling alive a Maine lobster fair? All were common practices. What was the difference between putting out food for bears and baiting a hook with a worm to get a fish to bite?” (175).
