I have a spypoint camera setup at my BIL farm where I hunt bow season. Didn’t see much of anything this past season but looks like a few bucks came back in January. My Spypoint camera gives 100 free pictures a month so today is the start of another month for it. I have lots of pictures and this area also flooded a couple weeks ago, bottom ground close to the Ohio river.

When the Ohio river gets 40 feet the woods behind get underwater 8-10 feet.

Last week I had to retrieve a camera that I had close to little oil creek after I got off work. I did not think it was going to rain that much. When I went to go get it I had to wade in the water up to my waist. Another 10 inches and my camera would have been under water and ruined. I bet it would have gotten covered later that day as we got more rain. I got lucky getting it.

I put this 10 feet up in a tree. Not getting it down till April or May. If it floods bad it’ll be under water.

I just saw that nice 10 pointer moving from bed area #1 to bed area #2. This buck is close to my 168 buck. Looks like same genes. Hoping next year it blows up to to a 180 plus buck.

bill9068, I've learned to make sure there are no branches/sticks/leaves/grass in front of my camera so that at night they don't get illuminated by the flash. That allows the camera to "see" with the flash further out.

LOL The roads out there are higher and only get a foot of water on them. When the water starts receding you should see the catfish, carp and whatever is in the Ohio river swim across 6” of water on the road. All you need is a net and ball bat.
