That would be so cool if we had snow for the am hunt!  It is going to be chilly willy!  For us southern east texas boys in the 20's is just down right cold.  Better were some layers and the head cover.

Native East Texas Redneck but now live in Texas City. Angelina is a good place to get together. Deer, hogs, bear (no season), Bigfoot, ducks, fish or whatever. Couple of flatbottoms pulling canoes can get you well off the beaten path.

Alazan is closed at times.  You can hunt hogs and bait them after January.  TPWD has info on the area and when closed open.  There is a camping area.  I think it would be awesome if we could get a hunt together after Jan.  

You can corn the hogs then and get them coming.  I live close to the unit, so I could get out and get some area on the unit ready.  The camping area is primitive, No hookups.  Be nice to sit around the campfire other than the cyber one and visit with fellow tradgangers from East Texas Area.

I live right beside Alazan. The hunting has been a little slow this season. Have seen several 1 1/2 yr old bucks but ones over 13" are hard to come by. When the river bottom was flooded about a month ago the hogs were concentrated in the overgrown fields but with the receding of the water they have dispersed back into the bottom and over into the SFA land.I would love to meet and hunt with y'all !

I would definitely enjoy getting together and spinning some bowhunting yarns and doing some actual hunting. Lets do it.

Since I'm a teacher the week after christmas is perfect. The weekend after the new year is also great. Any other suggestions.

You cannot bait the hogs until after the last day of waterfowl season.  I think that is around the end of Jan.
