For years, I've wished for a lightweight portable hog trap that I can take into the woods and assemble on the spot. I FOUND IT! www.gaterboy.com makes an aluminum 6 foot trap that ships economically and weighs about 50 pounds. Got one coming later this week and can't wait to put it to work. Does not have a bottom, which is good, the wire spooks lots of hogs when they step on it.
Can't wait to set the trap up near the house here. It's not for the commercial trapper but rather the guy that wants to trap one or two hogs to eat. It's six feet long and when anchored down with a T post or T post and tied to a sappling, will catch and hold hogs well. Check them out online. Good hunting and trapping to all of you. Luke Clayton
