trail camera trigger question
« on: July 03, 2012, 06:32:14 PM »
I have been thinking about setting up a trail camera or two on a few ponds to see if I can get some pictures of quackers and honkers. My biggest worry is that the movement/waves on the water would trigger it and I would get tons of blank pictures. Has anybody tried this or have experience with it?

never done it, but I have cams that are super sensitive and take pics of shadows in mid day as they move :chuckle:  but most of my cams are not sensitive enough to even take pics at 12 ft of rabbits and small game. the only cam I have that takes pics of small critters are my wildgame innovation cams
