Been bout 2months since seen hogs on cam's.. Had some troubles with the new spinner, so been hand spinning it.. Then found bugs in corn.. Also two bags of corn one just opened... So emptied feeder & hand threw corn on ground... As Experts said hogs will be back ... Going out ta change SD card & throw more corn out of new bag.. Old corn gone, coon tracks, droppings, squirrel & bird tracks... Did notice one hog track.. Thought maybe didn't sweep cleen.. Batteries were dead in cam by box stand so went switched SDcard in one by creek.. Pic did show 1 hog, guessing 60-80# 100#tops not best pic's... Gonna sit tonight see if can get lucky ... Hog is usin trail from feeder at creek & walking under leaning lader tree stand... Got blind set up for camera ta do laser-tag hunt.. Got my cent-away spray, wind usualy blows, twards feeder, sometimes it swirls....

Keep a lot of corn around where you threw the old corn, they will stick around til you get them. Good luck!

mosketoes are out.. Neighbors dogs are barking, yotes are sounding off ta me left... Pic showed hog at 7:22pm.. Messed up setting time should been 8:22.. So hog is late... Weeds are tall so that will be put in play... Chucky the squirrel is out... Usualy the dogs run em off... Wait & see, & yes plenty of corn... Would rather be at OSBWMA easen threw woods, chances are better...

Checked the cam by edge of woods facing ground blind... Coon was busy eating the corn spread out earlier.. Then at 8:07pm 2 hogs bout 10 feet from cam.. Their bigger than the 60-80# range... 8:12 no hogs 8:13 got to blind... 8:30 hogs are almost half way between cam & blind... Weeds to tall didn't notice till bout 8:37pm all could see was top of head & back....when left hogs could stil hear em went doctored wounds from mosketoes... This morning corn pretty much gone.. Scattered more corn by hand between cam at edgebof woods to blind... Cleared thin shooting lane ta were hogs were, & dumped pile of corn... Give it the night off... Cool things down try Wendsay or next... Nothen fancy... a boaring hunt...
