Trail Cam Thread

I sympathize with your situations, but y’all have it good. Try dealing with that kind of crap from 500 miles when you can’t just drive back tomorrow to fix an issue. It’ll make you lose all your religion.
I’ve had the neighbor’s cows get in and spin a camera on the post, coons eat my wires to the external battery, deer eat the antenna, and random blades of grass all the time, and I have to wait 3-4 weeks to go fix it.

Since we're discussing trail camera woes . . . the memory card on one of my Spylink cameras is completely full. So it hasn't transmitted pics since Halloween. Why can't Spylink do what Moultrie does and allow you to set the camera to over-write the oldest pic if the card gets full? Grrrr.

I really want to go fix it today, but with the wind the way it is I don't want to blow that stand out at the moment. But I might try to sneak in there and get a new one in there.

What size card? Depending on the picture size I choose, I can get 5-10k pictures on a 16 gig card. It sounds like you just need a bigger card.

My reveal tacticams just overwrite the SD card. I’ve had a 32 gig card in there since spring. It’s still at 60 some percentage of being full.
I did get an email from Reveal this morning. Said my cams would automatically reset to the time change on the first pic after midnight.
Probably still have to adjust the feeding times?

I'm pretty sure it was a 16GB . . . regardless, it's getting replaced with a 32GB tomorrow.

Danged Johnson grass stalks are back in the pics coming every fess we minutes. Headed there tomorrow.

That's a nice buck!

Mission accomplished. Johnson grass removed.

Pulled cards on a couple other cams.
Bucks still feeding together as of yesterday.

Coming home, there were 7 does in the front yard and this buck across the fence in the back yard in a pic my wife sent me.

When I was coming up the driveway I saw him chasing does right at dark in the front yard.
Rut is just getting started.

Looks like the deer we named Squiggy got shot and lived. Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks like entry on the right side and exit on the left. He showed up after muzzleloader looking fine, but after several days he shows back up looking like this.
