I think I have a pic of the bull elk with the funny front leg. Looks to be the same elk. His antlers were just starting but there is no mistaking that leg.. PM me. I am very curious about how far he traveled from Cameron Road area near Gifford.

Great pictures. I don't think I've ever seen a trail cam picture of a blue grouse!

I got pics of that guy strutting there 3 different times.  Also have pics of a ruffed there too.  Trying to post up some cool february bull elk pics from that spot but it will have to wait until i get somewhere with a solid internet connection.

Those are from the bushnell x8.  Its a 2012 model no l9nger in production.  Ive tried newer bushnells and 4 different browning models, plus a few others, and ive found nothing that performs as reliably as the x8.  I trust them so much that i have 5 still in their package in reserve for when the rest of them stop working.  The reviews for the new aggressor are reallybgood though so i bought one and put it on my property yesterday with a trophy rock for a trial run.  Ill report back this fall with my opinion after giving it a thorough trial.

That path looks well traveled.

I have 3 main trails here, all of which get regular action.  Ill be sitting one or another (depending on wind direction) starting sept 1st with bow in hand, since all my public land spots are a no go due to fire.  Ive got an arrow with that 5x5s name on it, and id be more than happy to stick that melon headed tom cat, or one of the bears given the opportunity.  Elk hunting will have to wait until modern season unfortunately, as i dont have any elk here.

Its about 12 feet up, but doesnt look quite so high because its facing an uphill grade.

  Make sure you report them.

Youre joking right?

Honestly I don't know what is best.  I posted some pictures of wolves on my game camera, and was pm'ed by a Bio saying if I report it it will help move them towards de-listment.  I am deeply skeptical about WDFW, do who knows?  Also reporting a location may handicap SS&S.   :dunno:

In the February stamped pics are you using an attractant? If so, what, because there's no sign of anything on the ground.

I put a 12 lb trophy rock there when i set the camera in april or may 2015.  So no real attractant there in feb 2016.  Little salt soaked into the dirt, but it was buried by snow.

Most of them, including the one with the 6 wolves, are the bushnell x8.  Discontinued 2012 model.  If you keep an eye on ebay you can find them for around 100 bucks pretty regular.  Theyre my favorite cameras.  Ive put them side by side with all the brownings and they work much better.  Plus i get over a year battery life out of them with the energizer ultimate lithiums.  Went out to a couple this spring that had been up for 14 months and were still running.

Browning is the only cam I've used and I'm pretty satisfied with them, but I'm curious what specifically about the Bushnell X-8 you like better?  Does the X-8 have better range than the Brownings?

Ive put them side by side with browning cams, and the bushnells pick up animals that the brownings miss.  And im not talking squirrels, im talking cougars, bears, deer, moose, elk.  This pic for example.  This cam (bushnell aggressor) is mounted an inch away from a dark ops.  The browning didnt take a pic of this cat.

pretty sure i know which one youre talking about.  hard to tell due to the angles in various pics, but if his left g5 makes that 1" mark (may or may not,) then he is a mainframe 6x6, with double brows, so total 7x7.  thing is hes really young.  i have him on cam previous year too, both velvet and hard horned.  i think hes 3.5, may only be 2.5 years old.  small little rack with lots of potential.  im actually really relieved he didnt show up while i was hunting there this year, as i probably would have shot him.  id like to see what he turns into if he survives.  had a pack of wolves howling right on top of me while i was hunting there in october, so who knows if ill see him again.

And here on the 18th, a female followed by her half grown male cub.  Got some night time lion pics here this week too, but didnt save them.  And the neighbor dog apparently found a lion kill again, cause it came home with a part of a deer leg.  Not the first time its raided a lions cache.

Went up yesterday to pull a couple cameras that i havent checked since july 19th.  Hiked almost 7 hours through steep snowy mess of a mountain. Both got flipped by bears in early august.  :bash:  the one on the mineral site was left pointing straight up at the sky.  The other was upside down, but at least aimed in such a way that it was still able to get some pics, though not aimed where i wanted it.

Screw in steps usually.  Ladders are too cumbersome, and too damn noisy walking through brush.  Sometimes i just climb the tree, if there are branches low enough.

Well, ive been a bushnell guy for years.  Tried out a couple other brands, but always liked the bushnell.  Decided to try out a couple other brands again, so i just went back behind my house to set up a stealthcam ds4k and a spypoint force 10.  Noticed a bunch of lion tracks so i checked a couple cams near the house.  The pic with the cat in the bottom right of screen at 330pm is only about 60 yards from my house, and its walking away from the house, so who knows how close it was.  The other cam i would guess is 80-100 yards from the house.  They sure are bold.

They sure like your neighborhood !! Do you have a count on different cats you have on cam?
Title: Re: eyes in the woods
Post by: Bango skank on March 11, 2019, 07:22:25 PM
No idea man.  Numerous.  About got more lions than deer here nowadays.  A hell of a lot more than there should be if you were to believe what wdfw says about our cougar density. 
  I have a feeling my lion infestation will correct itself before too long, as the deer numbers here are "mysteriously" declining in a big way.  So once there are no more deer, im sure the lions will thin out.   :(

If you have it on YouTube, copy and paste the link and delete the "s" from "HTTPS". Otherwise, you have to save as MPG or MOV to post it. Look below your post for "Attachments and other Options". Click that and upload your file where it says "Attach:"

Title: Re: eyes in the woods
Post by: Bango skank on March 27, 2019, 01:48:18 PM
My understanding is that it is to communicate with other cats, or to just express excitement.  Couple years ago i heard one whistle between my house and neighbors house in middle of the day, then my neighbor started hollering for her dog.  It was momma lion whistling to her cub, dog treed the cub, i ran right past momma lion and pulled the dog off the tree, got it inside, then a minute later the basically full grown cub came out of the tree and ran off with mom

Nevermind, figured out the problem.  With the free vimeo acct, weekly limit is 500mb.  This daylight video is about 620mb.   So cant post it unless i want to pay a monthly fee.

Lets see a wolf picture

Havent gotten any lately, except one real crappy one from early march.  The cam thats on i used to get wolves a lot, but theres hardly any game left on that mtn, so the wolves have mostly moved south.  I still have a few cams up that have been soaking since last spring, so who knows what will be on them.  Theyre still unreachable for a while due to road conditions.
Title: Re: eyes in the woods

Will be interesting to see if once the wolves move out if the game came back.

Had this herd on camera 8 of the last 10 days.

No clue what thats about.  Maybe part of the predator / prey study theyre doing.  Saw a collared doe in my neighborhood from that.  If that bear is in fact part of the predator/prey study, thats a joke.  Theyd need to collar mature boars to really see what is going on.
Title: Re: eyes in the woods

Got em on video too, one of these days ill set up a full vimeo account so i can dump all my daylight videos here.  That cat, and the last one to walk that trail (maybe same cat, i dont know) both stopped to pee in the exact same spot, and swished their tails around like angry snakes when they did it.  Im probably going to set a couple video cameras up on mock scrapes this fall, so ill probably just wait to do the paid vimeo account until then.

you keep a journal?  To log your cameras and locations, keep notes of what you have where?


Or do you just drop pins on onx?   but I could see missing camera checks just by doing that.
Title: Re: eyes in the woods
Post by: Bango skank on August 11, 2019, 07:50:57 PM
I keep a list of my cameras, with dates of fresh batteries.  I also mark them on my gps.  If i ever lose my gps and the wrong person finds it, it would not be good.  They could clean me out.

I set this cam up on the 24th next to a spring, figured it would be a good place to get pics of some big bucks coming in for water.  What i got on cam was a few days of bears, then on the 29th a bear climbed the tree, ripped the cam off the mount breaking the threaded part off the cam, broke the lens and left the camera laying on the ground.  Man bears are jerks

Yeah, i got home and decided to check that cam behind my house.  Smokin fresh bob tracks in the snow.  Missed him by an hour and a half.  He looks like a damn good one to me, but im no bobcat expert.  I texted the pics of him to a friend thats a trapper, told him if he wants him he can help himself.  He didnt respond.  :dunno:

That looks like the place to set a trap up or three. I’ve never seen more than one at a time. I did have a friend who said he saw three walk across the log once but it look like probably the mother and two younger ones he said. Those three on your video look to be full-grown

Post by: Bango skank on April 14, 2020, 04:03:33 PM
Yeah thats my house in the background of some of those pics.  This one was in the middle of the damn day.  Ive had one cat staring at me through my living room window, and another snuck up on me while i was out taking a break from doing yardwork.  And chased several bears out of the back yard, heard wolves howling around the house several times.  And im not in the boonies, hell, im on a paved road.  Theres a good reason i thinned out and limbed up the trees around my house.  Makes it a little less creepy when a guy steps outside to take a leak in the dark.  It used to be a solid wall of green, critters could be 15 yards from my porch and i wouldnt be able to see them.

Ds4k

Takes 256gig sd cards, good battery life, so good for video.  But, mediocre still pics, seems like a slow video trigger, and usually misses small stuff like bobs, skunks etc.  Can take tons of video without filling up card capacity or burning batts out though.

You talking about here where everything keeps snoopin about under this tree and peeing?  Some kinda bulletin board for the local troublemakers i guess.   :dunno:  i actually took that cam down, but after seeing how all the predators seem focused on that one little spot im going to set it back up, but ill set it up lower and closer for better quality pics.  I have a treestand up that ive never hunted (yet) about 50 yards south of that skidder, and called my lion in last year about 50 yards south of that stand.

Yeah, these photo heavy topics cause that to happen. If you close your browser page and reopen it will most likely load the page again. But it will definitely help if you only put a couple photos per post.

If you want to repost a few of the photos, two to a post, I'll go back and delete the reposted photos so it lightens the load on some posts.
