Welcome to the Wild-About-Trapping.com Forums

I'm about all done in with hogs this year its getting to hot to mess with them. I can'ty stand skinning anything with mosquitos biting me. Here's todays catch, decent size sow with seven pigs, but pretty sure they didn't all belong to her are maybe she adopted them. Two of them you could still see their stripes and were smaller.


My freezer is getting pretty full. especially since I didn't send any fur off this year except to Moye's.

Wish I was closer to Texas, I'd skin them suckers for you !!

I could have shot a ton of them this year, but I am like you, and just tired of messing with them.

I'll send my daughter down. She likes to stab them.

Saratoga, you ever try "turkey frying" a small one? We've been thinking of trying it. Keep the body whole after gutting and skinning, then batter/flour the whole thing and drop it in a turkey fryer. We just haven't found one small enough to shoot though.

Hey Loxahatchee. you must be a genius!!! My wife and I were sitting around and trying to think of a different way to cook them and frying one like a turkey never occurred to me. I'm definitely gonna try that even if I have to split it to get it to go into my turkey fryer. That's thinking outside the box (or Smoker) lol. Will let you know how it works out.

I'm only a couple of miles away Saratoga....just in case you need a second opinion on how it turns out.
