Well, went to check our cameras on the new lease only to find one camera gone, ain't that great, can't afford to replace so I'm a camera down

That sucks. One reason I have never bought one.

:mad: Hate a thief !!!!

Was it mounted waist high in a pretty obvious spot?

I've had 2 stolen from me since I started using them in 2006. Its a sicking feeling. 1st of all somebody stole your property. 2nd you know somebody has been messing around where you hunt at. I've never ran another cam in the 2 places I've had them stolen from me. Plus, I hate knowing somebody knows where I hunt at and where my spots are at.

Dang, sure hate that! :mad: I hate a stinking thief with a passion, and will prosecute to the fullest extent when caught, from earlier this year on! ;) Yea, I've caught some thieves trespassing on camera of late. :mad:

It was waist high but not in an obvious spot

 

[krazykarl_13]

That's why I did not run them this year. It's sad you can't leave them on your own property.

 

[grolfesst]

the same thing happened to me on me and my buddies private land. down right pisses me off. now i just keep them in the closet. don't use them.

I can't stand a trespasser and absolutely despise a thief.

 

[Junglecat17]

Never had one stolen, but had pics of trespassers on one before and that was bad enough. Shame you didnt have another out that got a shot of them that they didn't steal.

 

[Mike Belt]

Was this next door to me and did you have it cable locked? We had a couple taken last year but not close to your place.

I hatea rogue!! Had one stolen last season from the back of my property, had another camera set they didn't get. Got good pics of the a&$holes though. Got my camera back also. Had a come to Jesus meeting with em, don't think they'll be back, but ya never know with a lazy, no workin, welfare drawn pill poppin rogue, I hate em!!!!

 

[HuntingDicksonDTC]

same here, have wanted to for years but have been reluctant to. reason I went to a climber tired of finding trespassers in my stands!

That sucks. One reason I have never bought one.

 

[ImThere]

Sad, i used to use them on public land never had one of those cheap 35 mm ones stole lol they all stopped working of old age. Hate it for you aint much lower scum than a thief

 

[volunteer1]

I hate that! Has happened to me 2 years in a row. On private property!

 

[Hunter 257W]

I know the feeling. I had my best camera at the time plus a new ladder stand stolen at the same time a few years ago. Makes you mad enough to fight a bull with a stick.

 

[MObowman]

I hate thieves... I was cleaned out one year in Missouri on a place I had permission to hunt. They stole my ladder rails, stand, 2 cameras and a blind. They did all of this the first day of youth gun season. The owner said he heard a shot that day and figured it was me... Found a gut pile and a lot less of my stuff.

Tips to Conceal your Game Camera in the Wild

 

[Realtree]

That's pathetic people can't leave things alone.

 

[TN RDG RNR]

Wish there were stiffer fines and penalties for trespassing. Believe that would slow it down some.

 

[boonencrockett]

ok. after reading this post.. went to check my cam to find out it was gone.. I'm a very ethical hunter and abide by most rules. is there anything that can be done to a trespasser if you have permission to hunt and have pics of the guy or assumed suspect?? i had a pic of the guy last week on there digging ginseng (out of season) and he had spoken with a buddy of mine saying he seen where somebody had been digging ginseng only thing he didn't know was that was my salt lick and he overlooked the cam.. now today the cam was gone.. had good bucks on the cam to beat all.. help... thanks sorry for the venting
