bryn27 89 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Strange one this had 12 traps set on an area bordering another farm, quick check this afternoon and number 8 has a totally different formation regards the way I build them back up. You just know something isn't right especially when the plug of turf is on top of the hill. Any way true to form the trap has been stolen and they reformed the mole hill leaving the small flag marker in place. My mate (landowner) turned up and was fuming as he remembered the same happening to him in more or less the exact same area last year. Cant be certain regards the culprit but 5 ltl acorn cams going out tomorrow with false flag positions right in front of them. Thankfully it was a Talpa type and not my new Talpex trap.

Nicepix 5,650 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I reckon he'll bring the Talpa type back Pop a Fenn Mk. iv in and lightly cover it with soil. You won't need a trail cam to find the thief then. 5 Quote Link to post
bryn27 89 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Would have done but got fat lambs in the field,good idea who's responsible and I removed all the other markers and reverted to ground spray. Tomorrow is another day and I'll flag the area to bits once the cams are in place. Quote Link to post

bryn27 89 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 lock box and thread bolted to tree, I've used these cams for years now catching wildlife and fly tippers. Trick is to have every cam covered by another cam hence 5 cams. Image sent straight to my phone on activation. 2 Quote Link to post
