huntswnm Report post Posted August 25, 2009 Well guess you could say that it was going to happen sooner or later, I had my trail cam taken in NM 24. I am a little uncomfortable using the word stolen at this point in time, let me explain. I have never locked up my cams, no identifiers engraved, etc, etc so I know that it was easy pickings. I usually put my cams in out of the way pockets, trails, etc but this one was up close to a tank, on a trail leading to it, about 6 feet up in a oak shrub. There was a fire burn through this area a couple weeks ago so I know a lot of firefighters were spending a lot of time back in this area. I am hoping that maybe one of the guys took it to protect it, the fire did burn right through were my cam was. Who knows, maybe thats wishful thinking. Makes me wonder if my name was in it if they would of tried getting a hold of me. Either way its gone, gonna put a few feelers out with some of the F.S. guys I know see if they heard anything. Oh well, live and learn I suppose. Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest 300ultramag. Report post Posted August 25, 2009 Im sure they peeled it off for that reason.... Ive had a few FF come through my area they would trigger the cam with the axe and then walk through... just be patient and try to be up that way during the burn they might have it on the truck! Good luck... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
