    I was told that ducks love sweet potatoes also.

    we had the bow shoot last weekend and crawfish boil-I baited a hog trap and 3 coon traps with the crawfish heads and corn cobs-caught 2 shoats and 4 coons in three days. I think we are so dry they will eat anything right now-maybe dougepoo and I can start making CRAWHOG

    has anyone tried the diesel soaked burlap on a post, i was told they love to come in and rub on it..... another friend said he digs a two foot deep hole witha post digger then pores the corn in and around.... it takes them longer to eat it and they stick around more...

    I am going to do the burlap and diesel thing on a power pole....and put a trail cam on it and see what happens...I will post any pics I get....I have done the hole in the ground thing and it works...but the 10 inch by 2 foot hole becomes a 2 foot by 3 foot hole after a while!!!! LOL

    Hey txhogkiller, Try holding off on baiting your area until later in the day, like an hour or so before dark. I had a problem with crows cleaning out my hog traps of corn during the day when I baited them in the morning. I started baiting in the evening and that helped a lot!!! Then all I had to deal with was the coons!!!! Damn corn thieves!!!! LMAO!!! Shane Ladewig >>--------------------------------> TexasHogHunter.com Pro Staff Member

    you can also use a small pvc pipe 2' or so with holes drilled into it . Cap it on each end and you only have to fill every week or so. 4" diameter pipe is what I use. Remember hogs smell it from a distance and dont seem to mind it being in a pipe or on the ground.

    Hey Txhogkiller, heres what ya do. (now normally I charge for this info) wait til dark, get an old tire, stand it up and pour a halfa bag of corn in it, crack open a cold beer and watch how a pig can kick around a tire to get the corn out. it works, but ya gotta wait until the birds have went to roost.You'll need a good rifle for the pigs, but you'll only need a .22 for the coons. try it out.
