So here we are on the Saturday, we search by foot during the day for pigs to stalk on, taking the wind into account, swirly light winds, but no luck there...The cams had pigs every day on both stands, but one of the stands was now under water because of the torrential rain from Friday...

Take notice that the Honda ATV barely made it across the second creek we had to go through to reach the hunting ground and the stand

Now my stand is the highest stand I ever hunter   :scared: , like higher  than that! the view was amazing, but scary too! I forgot the security vest (I know, that's bad!)so I had to be extremely careful. Felt like an hawk up there, but I HAD to    :nono:   be extremely careful

So here I am in my tree stand

To give you an idea this is a pic taking on Sunday, which was a much sunnier (I was even bitten by a mosquito!!!    :D    )

 

Sun got down and here they came... 11 small pigs, extremely wary, constantly moving around... I hoped for a good one to show...

Manny- Barbara says Hi and she likes the picture of me with my belly sticking out. Says you caught me off guard and I didn't have time to suck it in. I personnally don't believe it is my best side, but it does store most of my energy   :)  .

Nice story. Not even the first tall tale ....yet.

It was much fun, Bigjim
