Just got back Saturday from the maiden voyage of kayak. Much better than the canoe I have. Still a good workout for a borderline senior citizen. Did about 10-12 miles on the river over the two days (Thurs afternoon-Sat morning). Camped at primitive with my hammock and pestered piggy's with my Big River 66# recurved bow. Did see several beds and one that was dug into the ground and about as long as my strung bow (58"). Wind was towards the river most of the time I was there which worked well. Did bust three (80#-60-60) out of a briar patch at the tail end of the field behind camp, just off the river. They cleared the briars at @20 yards and were at 30-40-50-60 yards in a few seconds. Would have worked much better with a group and have shooters posted on the sides at the upper end of the patch(out of the direct wind), so that when the pigs busted they would have had shoots. Pushing pigs solo at Granger is fun, but tough. Didn't see any hunters. Spent more time exploring the river with yak for next time. No pork on the ground, but smile on my face and recharge of my batteries.
