    Hogs have left the area

    Winter of 2020 was the best hog hunting I ever had. Hunting my lease was so good I never made it to the WMA. On our way back to Florida December 11 for the winter.

    How I Get Permission To Hunt

    LOL, Jack great story. The Florida residents hate wild hogs so I can see how that would work. Another tip: When people ask how you kill hogs tell them you use Dynamite for multiple kills

    Hog rifle suggestion

    I have thought many times about a 450 Bushmaster. But with ammo in short supply it's hard to justify buying another rifle. I did buy a 45 ACP in an AR style rifle for daytime hunting. For hog hunting it seems to be a waste of money. I had one shot at close range placed ahead of the...

    Lost in the jungle at night

    Took my camping neighbor (Tony) out hog hunting 2 nights ago. I instructed him to shoot if you get the chance. He shot one and the dam hog ran into the jungle. Tony wants to look for it thinks he can find it, it's pitch dark mind you. He finds it, to my surprise, then we realize we...

    Calling hogs

    The wild hog hunting adventures continue. Invited a friend, Ken, out for a night time hog hunt. Told him I'm seeing hogs on my trail camera. Odds are fifty fifty we will see some hogs. We were still walking on a road toward my blind and Ken whispered, "the hogs are already out there I...

    Hearing aids while hunting for seniors

    I have a set of electronic ear phones for shooting. I turned up the volume nearly full blast plus a hearing aid set to normal now I can hear everything. Those electronic ear phones came from Cabela's and work better than some others. My only problem is forgetting I'm using the ear phones...

    Calling hogs

    November 2019. Now that I have hogs in the area I tried my IHunt electronic game caller. I think it really works. But, my trail camera takes pictures of hogs and I'm not there running the game caller. So the bait piles is also calling them in. Well, the game caller is something to...

    Hogs have left the area

    Back on the lease November 5,2019. Happy to say the hogs are also back and lots of them and they seem to be bigger, 200lb is common and we estimate seeing 300lb hogs. They are everywhere and tearing up everything. People are seeing them almost daily on or along the local roads...

    Hearing aids while hunting for seniors

    I'm in my late 60's and have a hearing loss. I have hog hunted with some younger guys that seem to have outstanding hearing. They always warn me when wild hogs are nearby. I have a thermo imaging scope which is extremely valuable but wish I could hear the hogs before seeing them. I have...

    Calling hogs

    I purchase an Ihunt electronic game caller sold under the Ruger name. I had lots of fun with it at the RV resort in Florida. Some friends and I placed it under another friends camping trailer and started playing grizzly bear sounds. I was a riot. We laughed ourselves into tears...

    Hogs have left the area

    More bad news. I had to leave Florida early on March 1, death in the family. Never did get a hog this year. Arrived home and contacted the property lease owner for a hog report. They told me the leased property has been sold. My hog hunting days might be over. Florida has...

    Hogs have left the area

    After more than 12 weeks of hog hunting I finally had a shot last night and managed to miss. I had pictures of this hog the last 3 nights, over 200lb. I had a hunch he would show up early in the evening and he did, 7:15 pm. He must have winded me because he was about to exit the area before...

    Hogs have left the area

    After 3 months the hogs have yet to return to my lease. One guy I allow to hunt my lease managed to shoot 2 hogs over the 3 month period of time. He says the hogs just aren't out there. I found an area of hog rooting, put a camera on it, and saw only deer and raccoons. I think a...

    Hogs have left the area

    My lease is finally drying out. Scouting I found major rutting away from my blind. Thinking I was finally back into hog hunting I put down some bait and came back at dark. Sat out there for 3 hours with my thermo imaging scope and saw absolutely nothing not even a mouse. Checked again...

    Hogs have left the area

    OK, figured out today why the hogs are not on my lease. I went to a Florida WMA and found plenty of wild hog signs. Walked through my leased property and found it was very wet and many areas flooded. Two weeks ago this area had 14" of rain so my lease is still flooded. Known fact hogs...

    Hogs have left the area

    Update: Been 8 weeks and still no hogs not even a picture of one. Getting desperate I went to a Florida Wildlife management area, bought the $27 permit, took my revolver along. Didn't see any hogs but saw rutting and tracks as evidence. This was only a couple miles from my leased...
