    He is having a good look Dundee - I wonder if he will go in - do you have any advice please
    I got some lard to put in the trap and on the piece of wood - someone told me lard is good
    They wouldn’t go in with the bare cage - so I invested in a plastic decoy
    I give up getting near them with the 17 - as soon as I turn up at the gate the pair head off to the trees on top of the next hill

    We just use any fat from the dog tucker. They go in our cage trap without decoys too.

    mutton fat is good as it doesn't get fly blown.Once you catch one keep it as a live decoy.

    Not sure of retail price - I paid $100 on TM and it was local
    Got it to use on doves round home section - bastards wouldn’t go near it - turned it into a hog trap - fantastic - 24 last summer
    Your Lab looks good - doesn’t look fat - you are doing well on magpies

    Not worried how I get them - cage or trap - but hogs are on my hit list as ground bird predators - they have to go
