I caught 2 sows and about 10 piglets the other day but those are the only ones all season. Only exception was another group I caught tore my corral trap all to he!! and were gone when I got there. I dont trap except when I'm at the lease so that may be my problem.

Positive thinking may not solve all your problems but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

I see signs of pigs all over the area i trap, just not catching any. Ive probably only caught maybe 20 pigs since i started in November, which is unheard of where i live. Thought that maybe since deer season is over and most feeders are off that it would pickup

It's not how you fall, It's how you get up.

What area? Hog patterns are typically by area more then season. Do you have floors/bottom panels in your traps?
