Seeing spots - What say you? (pics)

[lightsoutcalls]

These pics are from my trail cameras last week.  They are taken at a mineral site I put out for deer... and such...    A week ago Saturday I dug a 20" deep hole (too many rocks to go deeper) and filled it with a 5 gallon bucket of corn.  Saturday (7/28) there was not a grain of corn to be found.  The post hole looked like a bomb went off and the ground around it was torn up. 

Here's the question... do you think the pigs in the first 2 pics are the same hog?  I just don't think the red LED lights could make the color variation so different.  If you think differently, please let me know.  If they are 2 different hogs, I'm almost 100% sure the darker spotted hog (3rd pic) is a boy...  (see last pic)





I dug another corn hole about 100 yards from this spot, as some pics showed the hogs coming and going from that direction.  In February I had repeated hits on the corn that are so big that you can actually see them on a google earth satelite photo.

Hoping for sausage soon...

I'm thinking the 1st & 3rd pic are of the same hog..... look close at it's markings....  Pic in the middle is of a different hog..... body marking are totally different... IMHO.

That's what I would say.  Can tell hog in 1st and 3rd pic is a boar, second might be a sow since it is with the smaller hog.  Just guessing, though.

looks like fresh pork to me!

I'm thinkin' 2 different hogs as well.
That last one is DEFINITELY a boar hog!!! You could make a purse outta that sack!

The 1st and 3rd pics are the same hog for sure.  A head on shot shows a really nice swell in the middle of his snout... thinking big cutters.  I have another angle shot of the lighter colored spotted hog as well.  When you zoom in on the shot, he is a boar as well, with probably 3" cutters. 

Did you want me to save that sack for you if I get him?  I thought it was a sows ear that they made silk purses out of...    Wouldn't that make a unique wallet? Nah... I never have enough cash to fill something that size...

You laugh, but they do make purses and candy dishes out of bull sacks!

My thoughts exactly.

Try some grape cool-aid and sugar in a hole. It will absorb deeper and attract hogs from afar. About 4 packs and a 5 lb sack of cheapest sugar should be the ticket.

Even better would be a diaphragm case for one of your "good friends"

Don't give the man ideas!! He might start building pouches for his other calls out of them..and I have no desire for one.

Man i would love to get some dogs on those hogs!

Grrrrr.  They ate 40 lbs of corn in 4 days.  There were 270+ pics on the trail camera, but they had eaten all of the corn before I got there.  I rebaited this afternoon.  Digging a 24" deep post hole in dry clay ground is not fun in 112 degree weather. 
I added a pipe feeder to increase the amount of corn in the shooting lane.  Hopefully they will come for a late dinner Tuesday evening.  As Arnold said... I'll be back.

Their days are numbered!
