A last minute Hog Hunt

[Bud B.]

Game Lands in NC only allow hog hunting when a coinciding game season is open. Private lands have no closed season on hogs. I visited a coastal game land here in NC on Weds hoping to loose an arrow at a hog. I saw a little sign, but no hogs. Small game season ended the 28th.

Here are a few pics. Recent rain had the swamp level up a bit.

I did bump a deer. A deer running thru a flooded swamp makes one heck of a noise.

While wading through a deeper section something swirled the water right behind me. I never saw it, but I then could not get alligator out of my mind. I went closer to the dry edge then.

Looks like fun Bud!  I'm envious of all you guys that live close to hogs.  Huntin' them critters is addictive.

Great pics. My first taste of hog hunting on the Hill Gang gathering has given me the bug BAD!

When I pulled into the game land I came upon four trucks of gun hunters. The hogs were already spooked, I believe.

Oh well. Maybe next time.
