Not Georgia but SC legalized taking bears with bait

[lampern]

SECTION 3. Article 3, Chapter 11, Title 50 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:
"Section 50-11-450. (A) For the purposes of this section, 'unprocessed bait' means any natural food item harvested from a plant crop that is not modified from its raw components. Unprocessed bait includes unmodified grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables.
(B) Notwithstanding Section 50-11-430(E)(8) and Section 50-11-440, a person may take a bear with the aid or use of unprocessed bait, including over an area with unprocessed bait, on private land in Game Zone 4."

It's already legal in NC.

Id wager to bet that the vast majority of bears killed in GA are over bait already.

Lake Burton garbage makes a fine bear bait

I'd wager bait can't compete with white oak acorns.

You would wager correctly. At least the unprocessed baits. Same with deer.
