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.
I always like seeing other areas. Thanks for sharing!
:thumbsup:
AWESOMEEEE pics Bud :thumbsup: I might have to leave the mountains and head to the coast :archer2:
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.
