I've nailed em with a shotgun before. I heard they taste good but I figured skinning it at the time would have been painful.

:)  I had a female bluetick coonhound that would find any porky on the place and kill everyone she ever ran across.

Cage trapping them near fresh gnawings with fresh lettuce and apples works well.

I have years ago. I used leg traps. They like salt so what I use to do was build a log cover to put the salt under so other animals like deer could not get to it but the porcupines could and place my leg trap under there with it.

Yes it is legal to kill porky pines, year round and there is no bag limit.
