Every year I make a mock scrape and it always get's action. This was the first year I had ever put a camera over it (1st year for the camera). I also did some else new this year. I didn't have any scent when I made it so I tried the trick that many on here have said over the years. So I took a leak in it and set the camera (figured no one wanted to see working over the scrape ).

About 6 hours after I did so, the action started.

There was also a different buck on the 22nd but the fog was so thick, I couldn't make out which one it was.

Interesting for sure, I had seen a guy do that on a hunting show years ago but never gave it a shot.....Is someone spotlighting that buck #3

No, the road is down over the hill. I think it is some kind of bug fliying in from the left

cranberry huh...i live in monroeville. i might have to come and check that out. j/k good luck with atleast the 10.

Interesting, never thought of making a early mock scrape to hang the camera on

djs, yeah i'd take any of the first 3. Monroeville, I grew up in Lower Burrell. Small world.

Canuck, I needed something to get them to stop in front of the camera as we are not allowed to bait and the season opens soon so I had to pull it out.

Wow, that is crazy!

I think that was the "BAT SIGNAL"!?!!?!

Great pics espically this early in the season.

Awesome pics. This is the perfect time to start setting mock scrapes. Hard to believe they started hitting it so quickly.

Thats awesome teammate!!! Gd Luck and go get em!!
