GPS tracker or a paint ball granade or a paintball grenade with a pull string on it so when they walk by it will explode in their face

A little slow for me this week, but all baits were hit... Added a new bait. With the heavy competition its hard to hold there interest with 10 gallons once a week.

Beaver dam bait. Hit 3 times in one night till bait was gone by one bear. His 1st hit was in daylight 3 days after baiting.

The bear bait buck spot:

The 1st one in was this absolute monster that has been hanging on this bait.
Image

Going thru the pics looking at the little tiny pic's I always want to just delete the hundreds of doe pictures. But in the back of my mind I always wonder if the giant non-typical buck this bait was named after is still alive. So I squint my eyes and try to see if there is anything an the deers heads, then... There it is, is that a rack? My heart jumped for a minute... Cool pics, but it was only a small 8 pointer.

Image

This guy showed several times night and day too..
Image

Although I get thousands of deer pic's a week. These were the 1st two bucks noticed.

The road crossing:
Just one bear... A good one, but after dark
Image
Image

The bigfoot bait is looking good with several bears hitting it.

White v bear

The remote bait had the same little bear on it as last week. Night hits.

Ribbon swamp appeared to be pounded. No camera since the theft.

Baited this morning. All baits were hit including the new bait Dan put in last weekend. I put a camera on that one so hopefully we'll get some good pics next week.

The remote bait and the deer crossing bait cameras didn't get any pics... the cards had a lot of old pics on them, not sure if that could have had something to do with it? sometimes cameras are finicky if you don't format the cards.

The Ribbon swamp was tore up like usual, but we're waiting to put a camera back on there until the dog trainings over.

The buck bait had lots of deer as usual as well as the small bear... no shooters.


The dam bait had lots of deer. they managed to push the log over and eat a lot of the bait. No bears showed until the last two days when this guy came by. also had a eight pointer show up.

The Bigfoot bait had the same average bears hit that its had for the last few weeks. the one sure likes to stretch for the camera!
