I was camping at the PC last week for 3 day. Just as the sun was setting i saw a freakin tank about 200 yards away. Never seen such a large hog in person. Saw about 20 that night just couldn't close the distance.

Did a little hunting this morning; hoping the forecast light rain would dampen crunchy leaves and the forecast overcast would get some moving. This was to be an water-born assault. I left Willis Creek Park boat ramp and kayaked up the creek, but I hit a logjam at the spot marked X on the map, and had to start walking 300 yards sooner than planned.
It was sprinkling, but not enough to deaden the leaves. It WAS nicely overcast, but no hogs were seen, just wandering duck hunters. I got out of the boat at just about 10 am.Last edited by NightStalker; 12-30-2016, 02:01 PM.

I took my 9 year old with me on Friday morning. We went to gate 6 and pushed towards the water and then towards gate 7. We started about 9am and ended about 11:30 am. We went through the thick stuff and jumped up a few deer. Didn't see any hogs but saw a couple other hunters leaving as we arrived that saw a few. Is this a decent way of hunting them from gate 6? Any recommendations on a better way? Also do any of you guys take a pistol at all with you just in case you have one decide to come at you? Would love any and all recommendations.

pbaird: Almost impossible to move silently enough in the thick stuff, the hogs are hearing the grass and twigs brushing against your pants, and are sneaking away well before you see them. You need to try and stay on paths, and look to the sides. The line in white on the photo shows a path you can take all the way from gate 6 to gate 7. Just one difficult stream crossing. Helps to go after a heavy dew or a light rain, as it quiets the leaves and your footfalls.Last edited by NightStalker; 01-01-2017, 09:48 PM.
