Caught some usefull video this weekend when a hunting buddy baited our hog trap and caught 2 hogs but in the game camera you can see he missed out on several more. Trying now to upload video.

Got 68 views and no comments. Was nobody able to open the video or did nobody have a comment about all the hogs not fittting in the trap?

They sure looked like the new right where they were going. If that door would have dropped straight down they would have had a full house.

Thinking the trap needs to be about twice as long.

yep, I baited it the week before but didn't set it then my buddy went the following weekend and rebaited and set the trap.

The larger and longer your trap is, the more hogs you'll catch and pre-baiting a week or so without it being set allows them to feel 'at ease' by coming and going.

The larger corral-type traps and longer rectangle traps 10'or more sure help out.

I put 2 10' tractor frames together and made one dandy trap with a guillotine trap door.

I have a nice corral trap for sale. 9 panels 5x10 and a 3x5 door. $2300 Sounds expensive. But you won't find one cheaper and you'll spend most of that to build one.

We caught 18 in it and had plenty of room for more.
