After shooting wild hogs at feeders for over 10 years, i'm tired of feeding them. IMO: If they want food they can pick up some corn around the trap until they get enough courage to go in. It's OK to attract hogs with a feeder. Once the hogs keep coming in set up the trap and turn off the feeder. Our portable traps are too low for a deer to get into.
Recently found a good technique that a hog trapper on another forum suggested. When putting a trap at a new location; put some corn around the trap and keep it replenisned. Bait the trap with corn and keep it closed up tight. The hogs will try to get in the trap after the corn.
After a week or two open up the trap. Klanggggg.
