Let me be the first to suggest "corn".

I have caught 27 in the last 3 weeks using plain corn, but i do sometimes pour rasberry jello on the corn i put in the hole i dig with posthole diggers. Am fixen to have to start putting a small amount of diesel on the corn in my best trap because the deer are on to the corn, even going through the push in funnel.

I have PVC pig pipes and fill them with corn. Works.

In our pipe feeders we use corn and a sprinkle of Hog Wild powder.

We also dig holes and layer corn sprinkled with Hog Wild and then when the hole is filled we compact the dirt and sprinkle a bit of Hog Wild around the hole but leave no corn because the deer, turkeys, raccoons, and crows will eat it.

We'll make some sour mash and use plastic milk jugs and hang them from tree branches about 100 feet from the pipe feeders and the holes we dug.

We'll also sprinkle diesel fuel on the nearby tree trunks.

A tip if you hunt tube feeders at night: attach (securely), a cow bell to the feeder. When the hogs push the feeder, the bell will clang and you know when to light it up with your night light. It really works and doesn't scare the hogs.

BTW: Anyone who hunted this weekend, how was your results? We took one hog and 4 of our 5 feeders were either not touched or very little, leaving a lot of corn. Also, only one hole of buried corn/Hog Wild mixture was messed with. We were thinking it was the moon phase as we have experienced poor hunting during other full moon phases.

corn, but have found they really like it if you pop it for them, than cover that with diesel!

I go by the local grocery store and they give me the rotten produce. That's seems to help and they go to that before they hit the corn under the feeder
