I got a coyote picture by finding a trail they were using regularly and setting it there. I left the camera there for three weeks though. I have gotten deer, a squirrel, turkeys and a bobcat in the last two months also. I sighted the camera for those specific animals, except the squirrel. Tracking your game is just as important for camera hunting! I am going to try for hawks soon. To get those, I have read you need some suitable bait. So far I have not used any kind of bait with any success. Just setting it on a good trail worked the best for me.
