Definitely smaller deer as bait. However, one goes fishing for fish. I think the term you're looking for is "Deering". One goes deering for deer. With your deering rod. But you need your deering license, first.

What's the creel limit with that antlerless Deering License?

Do I need a special stamp or button to go deering in Lake Erie?

I will say that you've gotta cut a big hole in the ice when ice-deering.

There are deer on Presque Isle. Why would they need to be so near the water if they couldn't live in it!?

People don't realize that whitetail deer have a lot in common with amphibians. For instance, they are both animals. Deer also have eyes, just like a frog or toad!... I could go on and on but I'll stop because you can get the idea. Deer and salamanders are pretty much the same thing.

deer and other amphibians are generally found soaked in some kind of moist or muddy environment for the majority of the year

Really, the only way to tell them apart is their warm bloodedness, mammary glands and hair. Otherwise they would be essentially indistinguishable.
