Best hog bait??

If it looks like a trap and smells like a trap, trap shy hogs won't go in it. To catch trap shy hogs you will have to camouflage your trap with naturally occurring things like leafy branches woven in the wire till the hogs don't know it is a trap, put enough dirt on the bottom so their feet can't touch the wire on the bottom and an added thick layer of leaves helps too. Works best with a trap that has a front and back door and tall enough trap so you can have no top on it. The trap shy hogs might go in it better if they can see all the way thru it and the sky above. But then again you may never get them to go in, no matter what you use for bait. The best trap is one your friends could walk by and not see, because it looks natural. The reason for the diesel soaked corn is hogs will eat diesel soaked corn but coons and deer won't eat it. Judge, I'm with you on the soured corn. I use it for the initial attractant, they will come from miles away to get a belly full of sour corn. But once you get them there dry corn right out of the sack will keep them there. When I trap or catch hogs to be relocated, I will put them in a large pen and feed them in a trap. When they go in it and get caught, a little electricity will go a long ways in trap breaking them, about two times in the trap and they will starve to death before they will go in a trap again. I guarantee you, you won't be trapping these hogs again.
