4ft gar, net too small, had to drag him down to the shore.

1 hour fight, damn I’m wore out.

Catching one of them is on my bucket list for sure.


Any of you guys running rechargeable batteries in your game cameras? The manual says not to, but I'm not sure if thats them just covering their rears like when my Kydex fishing pole holder said not to leave it in a parked car due to heat.

 

[AlienXtx]

no, just red top Rayovac or however you spell it. They last me just about a whole year.

My cameras catch me in the yard all the time so Ill get much less than a year I suspect. Think last weekend I had 120 pics on one camera and it was all me mowing and watering

Going to suck having to buy 16 batteries for every swap..... maybe work can help

 

[AlienXtx]

Think mine takes 6 C cells. I've let it sit from Dec - Sep without touching it and it was at 1/2 life and a few thousand pics. Its time to replace it, its old and the lens has finallyyellowedafter 10+years in direct sunlight 24-7-365. I got it set up in my yard trying to catch pictures of the armadillo that keeps rooting under my oak tree.

 

[Oswego]

my new moultries take 8 AA cells each. so far battery life has not moved in weeks so thats good I guess.

New ropes and bait plates on more than half these traps. Took a sawzaw to an old paint roller pan for newer bait plates.

wearing a salt life t-shirt, bought on clearance awhile back on base, , and enjoying a few Praise Jesus Coldbeers.

Blue & Rock crabs

 

[Oswego]

Nice! I like them better than mud bugs (I'm lazy - less work for the meat )

 

[Oswego]

koon or a cat.... only pic out of 345 that wasn't me. I gotta figure out a better location that I can access and shut off easier

 

[Taco Loco]

Just keeping it reel, out at the range.

Removed about 1.5 miles of old fishing line today off for about 85% (probably 10 not in picture) of my reels.
Re-spooled 9 reels. For some reason I thought I was going to complete this in a few hours, totally underestimated because I started taking the reels apart and oiling them down etc.

Went out and filled feeders and changed feeder batteries this morning. Brought the FoxPro and motion lights home to get new batteries in them as well. Me and @tx_shooter are going to go do some pig/varmint hunting soon.
