    Cannot stress this enough! Good luck catching that big brown one, too

      Man I hope you have better luck with that style than I did. They tired out and then were uncatchable. Built another one with a big drop gate and have been scoring for 11 yeArs with it

        Woodsman, that jager gate system is an investment from what I just saw on their site. I would love to have that, but right now I don't live on my place and I would worry about it walking away in a hurry.

                  Mike I am going to have gator bait, coyote bait, smoker filler and fertilizer

                  Spied a gator on the way to check if pigs were using trap but I don't think his little 3' self will cause me any problems

                  Grant I didn't see that sorry sucker today but I had the shotgun ready

                  Good news is the pigs don't mind going in the trap so Saturday morning is looking promising

                    Come on Saturday morning!




                    It may be a bloody, muddy, mess. But I understand gators don't mind a little wet piggy.

                      Looking forward to the updates. Looks like a pig catcher for sure.

                        Get some high tensile strength wire and thread that around and thru the bottom of those hog panels. It makes it that much harder for them to get under. They end up having to dig down and then back up. I have not lost a pig yet going under after I put another wire around the bottom.

                            Great idea. I know they push stuff up. How do you get the wire snug?

                                I would pull it tight and wrap each t post. Also put a clip on t post holding the wire. No it's not extremely tight but I can't get the bottom but an inch of the ground. I also do this on my gate panel but it zig zags from t post to t post between the bottom squares above the bottom wire. Now they don't lift the gate.
