Come on guys you're supposed to be sportsmen. I want to see someone start raising their own hogs just for the skin.

On that topic - many years ago there was a NY surfcaster that started a company that made rigged eels and trailers made out of shark skin which we all know is tough as anything. He sold them in bottles of brine and they were called Gizmo's. Very effective but the idea didn't take off. I'm sure some of you have access to shark skins at seafood dealers.
Who knows, maybe dogfish skins would work.

It is really too temping just to put that pig over a fire and have some of that skin when it is nice and crispy. Better than crack......
