Have you seen a decline in game activity on your tcam trail

[UTEXAN]

Guys, just wondering if any of you have experienced a "decline" in game activity on your tcams, especially elk. Have both cams setup over water and the elk have all but disappeared. I figured with all the hot weather over the past several weeks it would have been better? Any thoughts? The only upside to all this is that I had a very nice buck show up. Wii post a pic later.

i am new to the whole trail camera thing i have set it up 2 times, both times on water for 9 days each. the first time i had 3 bulls come in and then i moved it and over the next 9 days had 24 bulls and 2 cows come in. I feel pretty good about that.

You should feel really good about that.

that is good. How far did you move it? Same range?

my intent was not to hijack this page. sorry about that. I moved it 1 mile or so is all.

The elk always move closer to water in a couple spots where I hang Tcams, usually about the end of July and early August. Then they show back up mid to late September. I've been getting pics of elk though at a different location recently, so all is not lost.

Thanks for the input. As of last Saturday still no elk. I moved my 2nd tcam to a diffrent watering hole that had good sign. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Hunt starts this Saturday.
