Re: Bacon!
Nice hog! :headbang:
I may get to bag some this weekend, going up in the Mobile/Tensaw Delta, going to hunt them from the boat.
I hope I can get a couple, while a big boar would be cool for trophy tusks, some juveniles and/or small sows would be great eating.
Wish me luck.Ragnar Benson:

I've never hunted with it, but I can ring 12" steel at 200yards all day long, so I should be good to go.
We'll be somewhere up the Tensaw R.
My buddy Joe won't tell us where exactly he is taking us, just that his brother has been nailing them hard and he wants some too.

Re: Bacon!
Well, not much luck was had yesterday, but not for a lack of trying.
The three of us stalk hunted all over Gravine & 12 Mile islands, saw more fresh hog sign than I ever seen before.
We saw and my buddy Joe got a shot on one lone sow, she lost us in a particularly bad section of swamp.
Planning on going back to a couple of spots on Gravine, setting up a ground blind and utilizing both Grunt & Piglet calls.
The day was not a wash, much good time with friends and that is never a bad thing.
Cruising on the river, yours truly in the stern.

Re: Bacon!
i would love to get in on a bama hog hunt since we can't hunt them in tennessee anymore.
I’ll be sliding into town March 10-14. Can you have it warm and sunny for me then? And also, how about having the fish biting??? :D
