    I'd love to build a trap but I might as well go spend that money on bacon from the supermarket....will probably have to cut another track on the other side to get a good vantage point, keep chucking my goat offal in the same place at the bottom of the bowl.

    Pretty excited eh, I'm getting sick of shooting dog food..

    Yeah he's actually getting on really well these days! Settled down heaps, doesn't chase if I cue him to stay close.. Not sure he could resist a wee baby piglet.

    He was awesome tonight, stayed real close and was sniffing the hell out of the ground! Kept looking back at me, I am a very happy mumma I reckon there was a goat and her babies bedded down further along the ridge and when we walked past he just hard out winded them and kept looking at me, then them, then me. I asked him to leave it and we carried on up. Very cool stuff.

    Have they eaten the goats offal , I would chuck some whole maize around like biff handfuls all over in the area you want to sniper , make them work a little for it

    If the dog stays in like that you have it sussed, just ask him to show you or what ever you ask him, that'd be the ultimate if he indicated a pig for you

    Suss the breeze as you enter and let him work it, then if nothing still using the breeze see if he tracks off on a scent

    gave one the medicine friday night but there is plenty more, probably another 10 or so worth shooting

    Trailcam, maize in milk, good and rotten and some blood & bone spread around works a treat. Traps unless you prefer the whole hunting thing. Good luck Bill999.

    I see some people have been getting them for 175

    I had heard the acorn had trouble with reception in places so tries this, they look a bit tinny so I added silicon , but had moisture get in after the magpies pulled the rubber cap off the top so will gunk that up too

    Vodaphone only , need 3 bars of reception, sends a pic to my phone within 1 min of being taken

    That's a cool setup. Good value too. Except if u end up paying for lots of texted hawk and cow photos I end up getting. Long as you set it up in a sensible spot aye.
