Hogs

[sambo77]

Finally starting to catch a few in the trap I bought at the beginning of the year. I caught 1 last night he was a little one but a hog gone is better than not killing them at all. Yall that trap wm or hunt over bait for em what do yall mix up? I have been filling a bucket about ¾ the way up with corn, 8 packs of grape kool-aid, 1 pack of cherry jello, 2 tall boy beers, half gallon of water and handful of sugar.

The one I got today took a Hornady 240gr Hornady handload to the face. Only the zecond critter I've taken with that handgun and load. It punched lights out not a problem.

Sure did! I hope I do, I had the whole sounder there yesterday evening before this one went in. I'll know at 5am when my reveal sends pics. I gotta say these little ones are nice enough to catch compared to a big one. Put the gaff in the ear and pull it out. We caught one that was #200 a few weeks back it was a pain to get out.

I just use straight corn mostly. I do try some of the commercial liquid bate to add smell to it.

Corn on the cob inside the trap. Old piece of carpet drenched in diesel nailed to a fence post near the trap. We shoot ours between the eyes into the skull with a .22 rifle.

Yea, next I'm gonna use the .22. The .45 was a bit overkill. You mention diesel fuel, I've heard of folks doing it, never really understood it but threatened to give it a try.
