    Trapping a few neighborhood piggies

    We’ll continue to bait the trap but will keep the door tied open for a few days of rest to cool the area down a bit. After which the trapping will continue. Brian

    Trapping a few neighborhood piggies

    This trap is open on the top and dErE can jump out With the hogs committed to entering the trap the rootstick was set and the trap made ready. The idea behind the rootstick is that the hogs enter the trap and first feed on the two thick rows of bait (one on each side of the interior...

I recently set up a new pig pipe and it only took 4 days for the hogs to figure it out (unfortunately coons too). I hadn’t thought about using a barrel but that’s a great idea. I love the idea of a cow bell but...
