I have some boxes for the small Bushnell Trophy cams. I can send pics to anybody who wants one. Send me a PM and I will send price and pics.

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

That sucks. What brand and how long since your last check?

I had it out for about a 2 week soak.  I was really looking forward to seeing what it caught.

Sorry, I don't remember brand.  I bought it a month or so ago.   It wasn't cuddebak, Primos, or Bushnell, but was kind of in the next lower price range.

It surprises me how trusting people are with trail cams, we were up in ferry and have seen 3 cams on the roads!!! No locks, nothing. Not me, one was a cudde and the other a new Bushnell. I don't have the money to just leave cams like that.

Lock boxes will only keep the honest folks out. If they want it they will find a way to get it. Just put your cams far from any roads. On more than one occasion I have driven a dirt road at night and found a few trail cams. If you can see the flash from the road it kinda gives them away.
