I'd like to eliminate bait to normalize deer travel patterns and force hunters to hunt deer.
I'm convinced that we have one generation that has no idea how to hunt deer without bait. That generation is beginning to raise a second. The number of licenses sold would drop drastically if baiting was outlawed.
FWIW, I was told by a CO that the number of tickets written this year for violations of the antler point restriction increased drastically from last year. They tried to cut people some slack last year since it was the first year in my area that they were in effect. Not this year.
