First Time Trail Cam soak "not sure what i got"
« on: June 19, 2010, 04:16:35 AM »
I road in about 6 miles to hang this trail cam, only let it soak for a week due to the first time using it and wanted to make sure that it was set up proper. I got a couple does and this. Not really sure what it is, i would like to think it is a bear, but it would have to be a cub, because that is only about 12" to 18" off the ground. wondering what you guys thought.

I am thinking a porcupine as well. It does resemble a beaver, but there isn't any water near by or any sign of beaver. I am going to put the cam near there, i saw three large piles of bear skat about a mile away and i want to get some pics of him. Just need to get a day off to go put it back out.

Is the taste of the bait worth the sting of the hook twice?
