plugged with a one-piece filler which is incapable of removal without
disassembling the gun. From a sink box (a low floating device, having
a depression affording the hunter a means of concealment beneath the
surface of the water). From or with the aidof a car or other
motor-driven land conveyance or any aircraft, EXCEPT that paraplegic
and single or double amputees of the legs maytake from any stationary
motor vehicle or stationary motor-driven land conveyance. "Paraplegic"

been completely shut off and/or the sail furled and its progress
therefrom has ceased.
By the aid of baiting or on or over abaited area where a person knows
or reasonably should know that the area is or has been baited. A
baited area is considered to be baited for 10 days after complete
removal of any bait. Baiting includes placing, exposing, depositing,
distributing or scattering of salt, grain or other feed that could
serve as a lure or attraction for migratory game birdsto, on, or over
areas where huntersare attempting to take them. Agricultural areas
must be prepared in accordance with official recommendations to be
legally hunted. It is a separate offense to place or direct placement
of bait on or adjacent toan area that causes, induces, or allows
another to hunt by the aid ofbait or over a baited area. Huntersare
responsible for ensuring that an area has not been baited and should
verify its legality prior to hunting. The maximum federal penalties
are: for hunting over bait; $15,000/6 months jail, and placing bait;
$100,000/1 year jail.

electronically amplified imitations of bird calls.

any sailboat to put them in the range of the hunter. By the aid of
baiting (placing feed such as corn, wheat, salt or other feed to
constitute a lure or enticement), oron or over any baited area.
