Mineral Lick
 
Okay so i am not going to be able to make food plots this year, so i want to do the next best thing, a mineral lick, mineral block, salt lick, whatever you may call it. I have never used one before and need to know how and when to use them. Do you bury them, or what. i want to put a camera over one so any tips on how to use it would be helpful so i can get some pics on the camera :s2:

your kinda late. you should get the salt out in early spring. if you want to go cheap just get a bag of water treatment solar salt at walmart or home depot for 5$. ive never had to dig a hole. just clear out the ground a bit and if you can try to put it near water. no rules. i like to get the deer use to it and using it often before putting a trail camera on it. usually first week of august works for me and you get to see racks by then.
