What is baiting?

Baiting is a technique used in fishing to attract fish to the angler's hook. This can involve using various types of bait, such as live bait (e.g. worms, minnows) or artificial bait (e.g. lures, flies). The bait is often placed on the hook or lure and then cast into the water where the fish are located.

Baiting can also refer to the practice of luring or trapping animals (such as deer or birds) using bait as a means of hunting or pest control. This practice is controversial and may be illegal in some regions.

In general, baiting can be an effective way to increase the chances of catching fish or other animals, but it is important to follow local regulations and ethical guidelines when using bait in fishing or hunting.
