I know it's been posted on here several times, but I can't find the thread... What's y'alls favorite/anyone have the link(s)?

The hogs are in full force, but I really wanna knock a big dent out of their population, and I figured y'all would have the best remedy. And I know I'll never get rid of them, but they're tearing up our pastures WORSE than ever.

PS It's not my property, I just work there, so I'll stop the requests right now even though I know y'all have guns and will travel...

Sour corn. 5 gallon bucket 3/4 or so full of corn, fill up with water, put a lid on it, and leave it in the sun for a week or so. Don't get any of the juice on you.

1 clear trash bag
1 bag deer corn
1 large amount of leftovers that you would normally throw away or put down the garbage disposal.
water.

Fill clear trash bag with corn, leftovers and water. Close bag very tight. Leave in sun for about a week. Bring carbon breathing apparatus with you when you dump it in a wallow. Spray small amount of diesel on mixture after you spread it.

Sit back appropriate distance with massive firepower. Wait. Shoot all pigs on sight.

We have also had some success with digging a 3-4 foot post hole and filling 3/4 way full of corn and poured a gallon of sour milk over it. Cover hole back up and scatter small amount of corn over area.

We referred to this type of baiting as the "land mine" or "pungi pit" method. Works well, especially if you have the patience to let numerous hogs in before unloading massive triangulated fire upon them.

Yes definitely to shoot them. Thanks alot guys, I really want to try some of these. Also why the diesel? Is it another natural insect repellant for them like the tar from telephone poles? I always hear people saying diesel drives them wild and I've never known why...

EastTexas what do you fill the 5 gallon bucket 3/4 full with?

I had my buckets sitting since this past February. My hogs are going to be drunk. I figure I'll let them eat the whold mess before shooting. They'll be too drunk to run.

I've heard the diesel will just keep the deer away. Although with some of those recipes, I don't think the dear would come anywhere near it.

I have always had luck with one of two things

- a new fence that I do NOT want torn up

- a new feeder that I do NOT want torn up

Good Luck to you, shoot as many as you can for me too.

The diesel will keep birds, coons, deer, cattle, and pretty much all other animals away from the bait except for the hogs. I never bait for hogs without using diesel, especially if I don't make the sour mash. Use a spray bottle for apply the diesel.

Last bow season my brother digs a hole about 8 inches deep and 3 foot in diameter. He fills it with corn, covers it and spreads corn in the area. As he is walking to the stand two days later with only a bow in hand, he sees momma pig laying in the now empty wallow with six little bastids suckling. Needless to say, he never went back there with only a bow again.
