Fish Net Pig Catcher
 ✖  |
I got the idea for my "fish net" pig catcher so my husband could avoid getting bit in the leg by sows. It consists simply of a fish landing net strapped to a broom handle. The net was removed and a 2-ft. deep bag made from denim was slipped on in its place. The broom handle gives it about a 10-ft. reach and because the sow can't see the pig in the bag, she doesn't get upset. It works great. There's nothing else like it on the market.
