So, what are you going to do when you have 8-10 pigs in the "trap"? How are you going to catch/kill them? Once they see you they are going to try to haul a** and break through your fencing and it will get really wild when the first bullet gets fired. I think the trap will work as far as trapping the pigs, just curious as to how you the rest will go.

They will tear that wire up. We had one similar to this, but it was a big trap for cattle that funneled down to our cattle pens. Basically and in closed wing. We had a lot of old tin that we cut in half, long ways, and lined the bottom of the net wire with it. We took rebar and cut it in small pieces and hammered it into the ground to keep the tin pushed against the wire. Once the hogs were in the trap we would drive in and push them into our pipe cattle pens that were lined with hog panel on the bottom. We could then load them through the chute onto a trailer. We've caught groups of 60+ a couple of times.
Your theory is right, but the way it is now you will be fixing fence after your first catch.
