Balliet,
Ok now we have something to work with. If hogs are ACTIVELY present in the area, I recommend some very soured corn. My recipe is: In a 5 gallon bucket, mix 40 lbs of corn, 1 cheap can of beer (for the corn), 2 packets strawberry Kool-aid, 3-4 cups milk and a splash of diesel. Then fill the bucket 3/4 with water. Cover and set in a warm area. Outside is fine if it's warm. I let that set for about a month. You only do this one time. You want to place this in a fairly secluded place that still offers shot opportunities. Don't just dump the bucket of corn. Spread it out over about a 20x20 area. Then walk over the area. This makes it just a little harder for the coons and hogs to get it.
As you stated, it WILL bring in raccoons. That's a good thing. Hogs will actually follow the coon's scent trail to the bait. If there is a good population of hogs in the area, say maybe 30, between the coons and the hogs, your corn will last maybe 2-3 days. Then next time, you go out, take straight corn and posthole diggers with you. Same place. I dig down about 25-30 inches. Then fill the hole with corn and pour a 20oz bottle of diesel over it. This will make the coons LESS interested. But the hogs will still chow down. The filled hole makes the hogs have to dig for their food. The more they dig, the more they cover it back up. Makes the corn last a lot longer. 50lb of corn this way will usually last me about a week.
This really only holds the hogs in an area and lets you know they are still there. Can you hunt over the bait? Sure you can. But hogs tend to feed late evening and through to early morning. Some are almost strictly nocturnal. However, some are oblivious and just walk around in the middle of the day.
I don't know where you live or what the temps are right now. If it's already getting warm, find a good source of water for the hogs. Hogs can't perspirate. So they use water/mud to cool down and wallowing also helps keep pesty bugs off them. If it's still cool where you live, the water isn't important right now. So during the day I would hunt the most elevated brushy areas that face the sun. That is if you even have "hills". But be very careful hunting brush. Some hogs can really hide well. You might not see them till you are right up on them. That can get hairy, quickly. As stated in an above post, a back up pistol in the brush is a must in my opinion. If hunting over bait from a stand, I would hunt late evening.
If you want to start a caliber war, ask what's the best gun for hogs. If you want the truth, a .223 to a 45-70 will all get the job done. Just use a good bullet. If shooting a smaller caliber (.30 or under) high powered rifle I would shoot them in the neck behind the skull. This typically is known as a CNS (Central Nervous System) shot. Drops them where they stand. And doesn't destroy hardly any meat. I shoot a big lever action caliber and shoot literally an inch behind the shoulder about 6" above their belly line. Hogs are built differently than deer. You shoot a 100-200lb hog 6-8" behind the shoulder like you can on a deer, and your gonna have one helluva nasty field dressing experience because you will likely have blown their guts out. About 80% of a hog's cavity is stomach and intestine.
There. My version of a crash course in hog hunting. I'm sure I've missed something and others will probably add to it. But that's what I've come up with after being awake the last 31 hours. Lol
