Trapped 8 out of the 9 Hogs!

[Realtree Ga]

Made my trap a couple months ago and was able to trap 1 big boar. After that bears were so bad that they kept eating my bait so I took a break. The bears have headed back up high after acorns and I had a sounder of 9 pigs on camera all last week. Set the trap this weekend and was able to catch all 8 of the juveniles and only missed the big Sow. I guess she was a little too wise to enter the trap.

How did you get them to all take a nap for the picture like that at the same time??

Nice job! I've been thinking of building one of those myself. When the trap isn't in use, do you just tie the trigger cord back so that the door stays open?

 

[buttplate]

Very nice, CONGRATS SIR!!!

Where were you trapping?

That’s a lot of bacon!

I just leave the door closed so nothing can go in. Then when I'm ready to trap again, I'll tie the door open with bait until I get pix of them all going in and using it comfortably. Then I set the trap to catch them.

I'm in N.E. Georgia in the Mountains of Towns County.

Oh. The design I was lookin at, pigs were able to still go in with the trap triggered but not out. I'm in north east union county(young harris). I have thermal, will travel.

Well you won't be traveling far if you are in Young Harris. A short 10 min. drive. Lol. Yes, pigs can still go in if the door is closed, but with no bait in it, I don't see that happening. Plus, I can see this trap everyday when I'm driving to work so no worries about something getting trapped and me not knowing it.
