saw a utube where they hung a double sack of burlap from a tree over trap with corn soaked jello mix etc so it drips but the hogs can't get to it but keep coming back to try. when it goes dry they slit it open and give it to em. as bait of course. anyone tried this?

Never had any success with anything other than plain corn but you never know

Hanging over a trap might be ok. With a cell camera and remote door. Hunting over, not. Most stuff like that is just more work to prep. Plain corn. Deer and coons will eat most all of it! A very successful trapper I knew used a special pig feed. Producers use it to wean pigs off the sows before they went to the feed lots. Don't remember the name of it or who produced it. Nobody around here stocked it so he ordered it by the pallet. He swore by it and said the coons and deer did not really care for it.

Live Oak---deer and coons aren't the only corn vacuums---note the times on these two pictures--

If you just want to bait hogs, drill holes in a 6" or larger peice of pipe just large enough for corn to fall out of. need swivel on capped end to chain to something and removable lid on other to fill with corn. Pigs will learn to roll it around to get corn out as well as the noise will wake you up in the blind Wink

We always bait with soured corn. Put corn in a 5 gallon pail, top with water and let it sit a week.

Attracts the pigs, but the deer aren't interested in it.

Sounds like a bear bait, holes in the bottom of a 55 gallon barrel, toss in a dead sheep, hog, old bread loafs, anything etable and whatevers not..it drips on the ground..Bears seem to like it..same principle for hogs maybe..
