grizzly Report post Posted July 8, 2007 So I have had my camera in several different locations and never gotten a pic of anything. I dont want to put it on water because of thieves. I have put out salt blocks but I think that is a waste, especially since there are ranchers who put out blocks all over in this particular area. I have put it on trails leading to water with no luck. How do you determine a good location? I am thinking of making a mineral lick with the water softener pellets but dont know where to start with that. Do I just pick a random location? Do I need to look for animal crossing areas? Should the terrain be soil vs rocky? It is low desert where I put my camera and I have seen deer so they are there, but I dont know what I am doing wrong. Somebody please help a brotha out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rimhunter Report post Posted July 8, 2007 Hang in there . look for well traveled trails in a saddle is a good place to look . If you are down low then they are proubley mule deer and they are a little harder because they dont always walk the trails . but remember its hot and they will got to water look for well used trails around there . good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
