Critter Tread - Trapping

Blue dots are rough location of traps. No bait, he's already in the area. Mouse squeaker under rock (red dot). With no bait, hopefully will keep coons and possums out. Put a few gland lures around, one being for breeding. And some fresh yote piss. Hopefully this guy thinks there's a yote bro or yote ho hanging around here.

Been about a week. Guess who's back. Same bat time. Same bat location. Where he's standing is about 5 yards right of the traps. On video, he was heading off to the right but suddenly turned around and came back towards the traps. Not sure if he heard them or what. But then he left.

I'm going to double up traps right about where he's standing if I have time today. I didn't deal with any of this trapping until last spring. This year, it's winter. I bought some wax dirt so the traps don't freeze in the ground. All the cool kids on YouTube have great results with it.

Do you pay to get the videos or do you have an SD card in your camera? Mine says it won’t do video without an SD.

The wax dirt is a clever idea, and looks to be effective. Looking forward to your results.

I pay for xtra and get unlimited videos. My camera has to have an SD camera to work at all. I was under the impression that your new 3.0 has internal memory and it's not required but you can add one if you want.

It does and I don’t have a card in there now but I can’t get videos. Don’t know if it has to do with the card or not having xtra. Not sure if I needed the higher end 3.0 or not. I’ll have to put a card in and see what happens.

I had an issue with one of mine sending photos and videos once. When I pulled the card and put it on my PC, it had pic and video for each event.

Make sure camera is set to "pic and video" in settings no matter what.

That's weird. I almost wonder if that was old language they copied and pasted from a previous model. Seems odd they would advertise the camera as internal storage and not store videos. Did you go ahead and pay for xtra?
No. Already in the camera for $300. Would be an expensive deer if I keep buying crap.
 
This is what I get for the videos.

That's what I got when I first got mine. But I never used it because I got xtra for 9/month and it's unlimited. I may not even view 50 videos a month now but xtra covers all cameras.

Is that with an SD card now?

You could always pay the 5 and see what happens. Then turn it off so you're not billed next month.
