It works good but you have to have material strong enough to hold the and your tie off is strong enough to hold them.....Shane

I need to see if someone has a trap around the coldspring area I could borrow,I cant hunt the land around me but saw VERY fresh signs yesterday.Ill split all hogs cought.I wanna catch some to start a bay pen with and this is perfect timing.What I catch will go into a bay pen and we'll have some practice piggys.....Good huntin'....Shane

Sounds like a god run of bad luck,I hate to hear it,but look at the brite side you caought some bacon....Shane

Really I knew it was hard to find a place but not that hard!I used to pipeline and we did alot of work around ellington feild and space center blvd,there was hogs everywhere.Ever get down that direction?

I am new to the coldspring area and looking for a place to hunt anyone from around the area?I used to hunt the bedias creek bottom between huntsville and madisonville alot.Great hunting,but since I moved to coldspring I dont know many people around the area and very few hunters,The ones I know hunt properties that they are not allowed to,I dont want no part of that!To much to lose plus take a chance of getting your dog shot.....Good huntin'....Shane

Its to early for april fools,ok well maybe not if were here that means we looked,good job!    good huntin'....Shane

Hey thanks for all the good suggestions,some I have thought of and some I havent.Anyone around the coldspring area?.....Shane

hanks for the suggestion.Ive got 10 1/2 acres but trying to keep cost minimal with the price of fuel!Im trying to make something big enough to train a pup in and that my son can watch,hes 2,never to early to start.Maybe 100 by 100 and a seperating pen? out of 5' x 20 ' panels.....Good huntin'....Shane

I had a bay pen I built that was about 6ft wide and 60 ft long the pup would stay on the outside and work.A friend had one that was about 100x100 he would turn one good dog and then some pups,he did the same thing when training catch dog pups.Anyone have any suggestion on the type,size or material.I am starting from sctarch and trying to keep cost as low as possible.....Good huntin'......Shane

I live off 156,I work in the woodlands and go through your part of the country daily.

I have been hunting for many years,I only have two catch dogs left and they are old so not hunting them anymore,BUT i have a 4 month old black mouth that I need to get started.All of my old hunting buddies are like me,work to pay for the country lifestyle I want my son raised in and dont have time anymore and none have any small pigs or a bay pen like the old days.If someone knows where one is I would greatly appriciate it....Good huntin'
