Dude, I can't believe that I never thought of using wire or that backing plate with the bolt I always put a 1 inch diameter branch piece behind it. I have used string but the wire is awesome. Great video.

Good tips! I use several of these and run a lot of cameras on public land. I really like your bark idea. In my experience its best to have some sort of lock on every camera. I have come up with a few alternatives to python locks and those videos are on my channel. Thanks for the video.

I always put a broken camera over an obvious spot like a feeder or mineral lick. Then I place a good one in a not so obvious spot like a weird angle or height. Works pretty good.

Several years ago I had an idiot(s) who stole several cameras from my private property within a one day period. They found cameras that were in very thick and out of the way places and even cut the lock cables I had on some of the cameras. Elevating the cameras and using the thin black wire was a game changer and stopped the thievery. I have also conspicuously placed old non functional cameras and elevated them in lock boxes as a deterrent.

Deet works on mosquitoes but you might try Picaridin which does the same thing but isn’t oily and won’t harm nylon like Deet will.

I live in eastern Kentucky ive lost over 30 cams in the last 10 years even bringing climbing sticks and placing then high has failed....my best luck has been ground level especially inside rotten stumps and then brushing it in enough so anyone walking by dont focus on the area .....also guys mineral sites and stand/blind locations are a dead give away guys look hard for cams in this3 spots

We live in the country no cable available Is there 1 camera that will run off a phone ??? Very cool 😎

Yes cell cams send pictures to your phone through an app but only work if you have service. I use a Moultrie Delta.

What placements were you using when the cameras got stolen?
@HuntingFactor6 ай бұрын
I was hanging them about 3 feet. With a cable lock and a strap.

How did they get the camera off the cable?
@HuntingFactor6 ай бұрын
@StevenSmith-7t391 they pretty much break the plastic loop’s off where the cable goes through. Leaving the cable lock and taking the camera.
@StevenSmith-7t3916 ай бұрын
That’s what I was wondering. It almost makes a cable lock to be a waste of money unless maybe you use a lock box in conjunction with the camera. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

It's a shame that people won't leave things alone. I would hate to think it's fellow hunters. I would lean towards Peta or similar type individuals maybe even Conservation Officers .

You're not alone on that. Too much theft is happening. In the middle east people that steal get their hand cut off. Not many repeat offenders.
