Heres a pic of one of my hog bait mixtures - 07/19/11 09:04 PM

Thanks for all the ideas for hog bait. Here is a picture of one of the buckets i made up. 5 Gallon bucket with 2 Gallons of milk, 3 jars of GRAPE koolade powder (makes 8 quarts each), and about 20 pounds of corn. Put the lid on and placed in my hot garage, this is a picture the next day when i took the lid off to release the pressure i did not know it would make. I am hunting with it this weekend so hopefully i will have pictures to show come Monday. Also have another bucket made up with corn and Diesel.

finger licking good. how do you plan on using it? feeder tube, in a hole or just out on the ground? keep us posted how it worked. do you have hogs where you hunt or trying to get them in?

i think your mix will get them in to where you want. the problem i found with the garage cooked home brews is that you use it faster than you can make it especially when the weather cools off. lately i have been using a mix of one bag of sweet/horse and mule feed and two bags of corn. i fill hog pipes next to the feeder and pour a line out on the ground when we are hunting. the pigs in my area are hooked on it. we have shot a pig one night under the feeder and had them back two days later eating the feed off the other pigs blood. when that feed gets wet from the rain, it gives off a smell that only a pig could love.

are you set up for night time hunting? ours are still coming in after dark. good luck.

best thing about our product is that its READY no mixing! NO BAD smell! when I head to the ranch for a day I grab one bag of corn and one bottle or pig crazy or hog draw and my AR or .308

good luck and we expect to see some "pig porn" when you get back. if you build it then they will come. (usually after you get tired and call it a night)

Well, first evening in the stand with my mixture and the pigs came charging in. Will post pictures of the dead pigs we found on Sunday. Tired of tracking blood trail on 300 lbs boar, shot was a little high so no telling where he went.
