Neighborhood Blacktails part 2

[lilswab]

Once again I just got some great pictures of my neighborhood bucks.  I was pretty sure I had at least 3 bucks on my first camera setup.  I thought I lowered it enough to get a better view of the bucks, but once again It seemed to miss them and get just ears and some of the racks  .

Since then I added another camera, sitting on a saltlick covered with a block topper.  It worked well and I got some nice pictures. I now have confirmed 4 bucks visiting my setup.  One small buck and the other three bucks look to have good potential.  I get happy when I see big blacktails!   The one with good eyeguards definetly has my attention. I also got pictures of 1 opossum and raccoon visiting my saltlick setup. 

The trail camera addiction is in full swing.  Thanks for looking. 




 PLEASE DISREGARD THE DATE, SORRY, I KNOW ITS NOT 2011!

what kind of lick are you using and what is a block topper. just set up my trail camera for the first time last night and not sure what the best attractant is for blacktails

Ridgefire, Here is the link that has information about block topper.

I don't know if this is best for blacktails.  I have heard many things that work best and from my conversations with people that seem to know what they are talking about.  Apples seem to be the best attractant.  I haven't used apples before, but I will put some out next time I check my cameras.  I actually ordered the block topper for whitetails when I lived in Pullman, but I never got a chance to try it out.  Basically, you put out a saltlick of any kind and cover it with block topper and it makes like a candy coat over the saltlick.  Seems to be a good idea and as far as my pictures show the deer came in to check it out. 

The block/saltlick I used was an apple flavored saltlick made by evolved habitat.  I figured that since I didn't have apples I might as well use apple flavor.   

Let me know what works for you?

Hitman...I wish I had room for you to help take out some deer but I think this will be my honey hole for now.  What awesome spot do you have to share with me?  I might be willing to trade spots...whatcha got for elk problems that I can help you with


Ben, get those pictures...Are you hunting muzzy for both seasons this year?

[Blsum]

Mike already posted the pictures from today. Looks like we got a dink and one with some hope. As far as hunting this year, Yep strictly muzzy for me. I just ordered some deer cane and some rack-up mineral. We will have to see how it all works out. Definitely bit by the bug
