Been seeing a few small sows and small pigs on camera at night so I made a quick trap out of 4 T-posts and some dog pen wire I had. I was hoping to catch a small gilt for the smoker this weekend at deer camp. Checked it this eve and this guy was just standing in it. Can't believe he didnt bust out! All he had to do was push a little.

I upvoted for the keystone.

Let the "beer snobs" come in and rant about how their light beer is way better.

30 pack or $16 drinks good in my book.

Look like he beat the shite out of him based on that pic.

As to op' question: idk, I had a big sow in the trap yesterday but her buddies blew a hole in one of my cow panels an escaped. But she evidently couldn't find the combination and is now in hog heaven. I guess you're lucky?

I had a sow in a 4'tall 6 trap, she scaled the damn thing to get out. Or at least that's my assumption. One trail cam pic she's in there, the next she ain't. No damage to the trap either.

BTW, tell me more about your trap

It was a trap I threw together to catch a small sow under 100lbs so it's only 6' tall by 4' wide. I did put a top on it cause hogs will climb out in a heartbeat. I just drove 4 T-posts in the ground and wrapped it with 6' dog wire. For the gate I used 3/4" plywood. I drove in 2 more tposts about 3" away from the trap opening and slid the gate into the opening. I threw a rope over a limb and hoisted the gate open, ran the rope down thru top of trap to the trigger. I dug a hole under the trigger and filled with corn so when they root the corn out they spring the trigger and gate falls shut.

Kind of impossible unless he started smoking it already. Stupid 11am games.

Now, that sounds like a simple, but effective, trap. I have a bunch of left over t-post from my figure 6 trap. I'm gonna have to give it a try.
