RE: setting up area for hog hunting???
I have used a pop up blind and baited an area for hogs. Just make sure the blind is down wind and use something like slop that has a lot of smell. This works good for me and since you are in a corn field, it might just work. Then when you need to leave, the pop up blind is easy to take down. You might want to put some slop on one of the heavly traveled trails and then set the pop up blind about 20 yards away down wind. Hope this helps and good luck.

RE: setting up area for hog hunting???
just asking because even when deer hunting i take my bow light and hunt
30 or so min. after dark and they are either there 30 min. before or after dark (there being my feeder)
but if your land owner wants you out at dark try walking the heavy used tails back towards the thick cover and catch them on the way to your slop
another way to hunt with out wasting a lot of time is to use a trail cam
that way you dont pressure the pig in to not moving during day light hour
and when you strart getting day light pics at your slop start wacking them
good luck
