Hog trapping for the first time

[Bazo]

Well I picked up my first trap last night. I got it out and going to leave it open and bait it for a couple days. We'll see how it goes!

[gingib]

sweet! What kind of gate?

[Bazo]

It's a push gate right now but if it doesn't give results I will add a trigger to it. It's upside down in that picture with the door laying open up by the cab.

If it all works out this will help my hunting fund

I just started trapping 2 weeks ago. I hauled 4 to the buyer yesterday for 172.00, so far I've put right at 600.00 in my pocket with 15 hogs.

That's my plan!! I hope it works out!!

Don't waste your corn and time with the push gate--put the trigger in now. And, paint the floor of the trap gold with corn so they pile in and pile up before they get to the trigger wire.

TCarmichael, what buyer are you going to take them to?

[Hawkins]

I would go ahead and set a trip on the door. I prop mine open with a stick and run a trip wire across the trap. I've caught 9 in three days $350.00

TCarmichael, what buyer are you going to take them to?

Mike and Vanessa around the Coldwell area. That is the only one in the area I'm aware of.

Anyone know of any other buyers in the Milam county area?

So the push door is no good?

No i would rather leave the door open and have a trigger in the back. Works better
