What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources regulates the hunting, fishing, and trapping of wild animals and is required to promulgate rules to carry out that function. Under rules promulgated by DNR, a person hunting for bear, training a bear dog, or hunting deer in specified counties may not place, use, or hunt over bait or feed that contains or is contained within metal, paper, plastic, glass, wood, or other similar processed materials. This prohibition does not apply to bait or feed placed in hollow logs or stumps or to scent materials.

This bill modifies the DNR rule to authorize affixing a processed wood bottom to a hollow log or stump using adhesive, nails, or screws for the purpose of containing bait or feed.
