Hog attractant

[Hoghunter29]

Really just curious as to how many use it and what kind

 

[antharper]

Sour corn is all I’ve ever used

 

[Big7]

They will eat anything. Even a hog carcass. ?

I'm new to this hog hunting bur so far I've tried hog wild Saturday for the first time and will check property tomorrow. Other than that I've used sour corn, sow in heat hog bomb and another sow attract that comes out like a web.

That is a freaky sight. We drug one back to the lease house in Texas. Drove the ranger back out there after dinner and other hogs were going at it.

I couldn't imagine that coyotes could eat a whole hog in a few hours till we realized it was other pigs doing the eating and not the yotes.

Some hogs would just sit there and rot for days/weeks untouched by anything. Other hogs would dissappear in hours. Still can't figure that.

Sweet & Sour smells work best for me. Soured corn,fermented in cheap Beer,with Kool-Aid on top is usually a good bet. A can of Boiled Peanuts,scattered around the inside of a trap is also a winner. They LOVE Peanuts..?

They love anything sweet like peanut butter or molasses but most of the time I just use regular corn and they love it.
If I am trying to bring them to a new area I will dig a hole with fence post diggers as deep as I can.
I fill it with corn, koolade or jello powder, strawberry,grape, anything smelly. I add 4lbs of sugar, three small packs of yeast and as much water as the hole will hold and stir it with a stick. They will find it and eat around that hole for years. I have holes you could park a truck in and pigs still root them.
When I go in for a hunt I carry a gallon baggie of corn with koolade powder in it and pour it out where I want my shot to be. Has worked more times than not!

While these might work, we simply have sour corn and they TEAR IT UP....!

 

[sleepr71]

Haven’t had much luck with store bought stuff. Hogs are slaves to their Stomach,and Breeding..put loud smelling FOOD out & they will come.

 

[sghoghunter]

Plain ole corn works as good as anything else once they find it

 

[MattLemmon]

I prefer sour corn. But occasionally I’ll get a free weekend to hunt last minute where I don’t have time to make sour corn. I have used pig out and B&J liquid hog mixed with corn for some of these trips. Truth is that coolaid and grape soda mixed with corn the day I dump it works as good or better than the store bought stuff. Listen to what the guys wrote above and save yourself some $.

 

[Hoghunter29]

Im asking for different reasons not for me to buy And thanks again for the responses

 

[riskyb]

I use corn with molasses

 

[HogKillaDNR]

I use corn with molasses

I can't find any cheap molasses around here.

 

[riverratree]

This is gonna sound crazy but Little Debbie's. They love em. But if you have coons, they will snatch it up too. I buy outdated Twinkies, cupcakes, etc....They love it!!

 

[HogKillaDNR]

Might have to add that to the trap. Love these ideas. Do you think they will eat old horse feed and dog food?

 

[riverratree]

Here's the proof.

not sure, never used that.

We had a hog tripod feeder on a little piece of land at a bend in a creek that was surrounded by hardwoods and then lead out to a planted power line.
Pigs were hitting the feeder good but not great. My friend,who has horses and cows, dumped out a broken bag of sweet smelling horse feed.
The pigs devastated that area and got every grain of it up.
It probably would not last long in rain but if you have pigs it won't last long either.

not sure, never used that.
