Pig Reports
For some reason, last year we had very few hogs at the hunting lease. Very little sign, only two sightings and one kill. We thought our hog troubles were over.
I just got a call from the guy who handles our lease. His mail man reported a sounder of 20+ adult hogs crossing the highway and entering our woods. And a woman who works in his office and who lives just North of our lease said she saw a sow with eight little piggies doing the same thing.
Our primitive arms/gun season doesn't open until Nov. 14th. But I thing the Swamp Dragon will be looking to feed on some pork as soon as the heat lets up a bit.

Semi, want me to see if the fellas are about done in Texas and send them your way? If so, find out if there is somewhere close that Thomas can get some ammo for my .458. I'm sure he is getting low since I only sent around around 100 rounds with him.

I wish I could accommodate you guys. But our club does not allow non-member guest hunters except for youngsters up to 16 years old.
The property can't stand much more hunter pressure than the members put on it. The "no guest" rule was implemented years ago and has prevented a lot of the discontent and bitching we see in surrounding clubs.

Question though, It's been since 2010 since I ran hogs in Louisiana, is it still illegal to crack on them at night there? Bone stupid rule there if it is. In the heat that state has in the summer, fall months it would be dang near impossible to get a crack on them in the day time.

I know hogs do alot of damage, but I wish we had some where I hunt....just so I could get me some bacon each season
They are drifting north and east...I'd imagine in my lifetime they will be prevalent around here, then I'll probably be complaining that I wish we didn't have em.
Good luck Semi, hope the dragon gets to eat!
