i was wondering if any trad guys in missouri know of any good places where there is a high concentration of feral hogs with good chance of succsses. me and jds3 from the gang would jump at a chance for a hog hunt in mo if anybody knows or has some of ther property and want them removed pm me thanks john

also any other trad guys are welcome to come if we can find a place to go to get us missouri trad guys toghter

Wish I could join.  There used to be a bunch at FT Leonard wood, but i beleive they killed them all.

Best place I've heard of so far is Lake Wappapello.  Some of the Southeast Mo. Boys have had a couple hunts down there the past couple years.  They say there is hog sign around the lake but no one has scored yet.

I've heard there is some around Truman Lake in Henry and St. Clair counties, but I haven't had a chance to even go look.

Yes there are hogs at Lake Wappapello. I Corps will help you in any way they can if you call and ask them. They will try and get you close to and hogs at least where they last knew they were. And you can kill as many as you want if you find them. A friend of my dads hunts them on his land from horses with dogs. They kill 15 one weekend I think. In the Wappapello area.

so if i could orginize a trip dowmto wappapello would any body be intrested in going and is I corps like the army core of enigneers like at lake truman so if any body is serious i would like to get this trip toghter i hate not having anything except swuriells to hunt during the summer here in mo

If you go to the missouri conservation site there is information on feral hogs. Last I heard there was supposed to be quite a few around the warrensburg sedalia area. Ft. Leanord Wood was another area you could get in to hunt on as well.

There are also isolated populations in Iron and Reynolds counties, I would be interested in a hunt but would prefer cooler weather. I have hunted hogs in the summer and it can get pretty miserable! Maybe a combo Deer/Hog expedition in the early fall?

Yes i ment army corps sorry

I would be game.  I am a away at school but only 3.5 hours away from Wappapello.

I am about 4 from Wappapello. Would need to know well ahead of time and have to be on a saturday, plus i would still have to get a bow.

Lets make this happen. I want to suggest a Hog/Squirrel combo hunt.  We can hunt, stump shoot and camp. Bring the family; more the better. There should be public ground with camping somewhere close.

It doesn't have to be 4 hours away. Lets get some info about around Ft. Wood. A Conservation agent told me that there are hogs around the Ft. Leonard Wood area.

goodoldboy- try to get ahold of the MDC. I'm for sure in when we can get the details.

Well, if you guys decide to try it in the Ft. Wood area, I can do a little scouting and talk to a few guys I know who've killed hogs up there.  No promises, because the way I've heard it, it's feast or famine.

I'll make some inquiries in the next few days and post here.  What kind of time frame were you thinking about, John?  Got any dates in mind???

One thing is for certain... BRING TICK SPRAY!!!    

No matter what i am at least 4 hours away i am living in Mississippi right now but i am Missouri born a bred still have Missouri Drivers licince and car tags.

ft leprnard wood sounds good to me i will try and get it orginized and if any one can help and tell us where there are any good conservation lands down there orif any one has private ground taht would allow us to hunt that would be even better

29% DEET, will not leave home without it.. Ha

goodoldboy let us know. I'm in for sure whenever you all can make it.

What dates seem to work for everyone? I'm more or less open to any other than the third week of August I have to be out of state.

I think some MO guys put something together about a year and a half ago and I couldn't make it at the time.  Seems like one of the guys heading it up was 'citori'.  I'd be up for it this time depending on the date(s).

I am in

Scott

well any body who is serious about going lets set a date that can work for everybody it will be on a weekend like get there friday nite set up then go after it in all day saturday and sunday then leave sunday afternoon any body who is serious pm me the dates that would work fo you so ican get this thing organized
