I really thought I was putting a dent in my pig population. Silly me. About 20 ran past my blind about an hour ago, and many many were tiny. Dang. But I did shoot the big sow.
Got to bait the trap again. I’ve held off because the wife doesn’t want to catch another turkey. I wonder if turkeys are dumb enough to get trapped more than once. They may be. When I walked in the back today, there was a big Tom standing very near the trap.
Not my monkeys, not my circus...

If your trap is made from hog panels, you can use bolt cutters and cut the top out. Deer and Turkey can escape.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

Cut a few limbs with a lot of smaller branches in front of door. It keeps the deer out, should help on the turkeys. Pigs push through like a bulldozer...

Live near Groesbeck (east of Waco). I have both traps in action 24/7, but have only caught a few more pigs in the last 5 days.
