ianm 2,594 Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 I have been using these cameras for a good few years now and i have found that they save me a lot of needless waiting. They are prone to dampness if used extensively in wet weather but i use a cover for mine made from old milk jugs. If you put them where the public have access to it may be prudent to paint them or cover them with some of that cammo tape of ebay. 3 Quote Link to post
Tyla 3,179 Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 I run a fleet of these for the estate and have done for a few years. I started out with good quality ones on the theory of buy cheap buy twice but found they don't last much longer than the cheap ones. Now i buy cheap. I get about a year out of them outside 24/7 then damp kills. The cards also pack up quite regularly. I get some very interesting footage on them though Quote Link to post
Stavross 13,544 Posted October 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Well I had a look out again last night and the bait was still there and the only thing on the camera was buzzards and crows pecking at it, so it may of just been a one off chancer, I’ve left the camera there and will check again after the weekend, if nothing shows I’ll take it as job done, after checking the camera I went to some other fields I shoot rabbits on, I was shocked at how many there was as this place gets battered, so after spreading a couple around the field with the .243 ( for fox bait ) I think a wonder round with the rimfires is in order for next week 1 Quote Link to post
