Why are CA pigs a menace.

Yah but it looks like fun.

You and I would have to tag team the reloading efforts just to enjoy half a day of helicopter hunting.

When do we all get the group hunt invite?

On that topic, wasn’t there a group that organized a HT spring beer hunt once upon a time?

I saw something like this a family friend's cabin near Coalinga about 35 years ago. After they sold it and I lost permission, I hunted near there at a certain piece of state ground.

Coalinga! , hunted some blm or state or something (who knows) there for pigs with a guy in the late 90’s when I was a teenager, Vietnam vet. Crazy f’er, hunted with a AK. 7.62 fmj. Jesus!

Hunting pigs here isn't that tough. They cycle around every few weeks and usually hang for a few days in their normal favorite areas. What we have been beginning to see is very large single boars 2-300 pounds that are doing lots of damage. It seems that they never stick around and hunting them is tough. The good side is that you will get 100#+ of sausage and snack sticks.

I’ve watched those mean nasty bastages split it’s snout trying to break thru a pig wire transfer holding pen. Temporarily stunned they revive and do it again. They eat their own and gestate 3 times a year, thick as mosquitoes & wary.

Note to self: don't store acorns in your wall in pig country.

So nuts are the hot bait for pigs?

Deeez nuts

That chit is craaaazy.

 

[Redmt]

Definitely. When the acorns start to drop we have pigs everywhere. If you cut a limb loaded with acorns just sit back and wait

 

[44hunter45]

@Redmt - Have you seen them on dead deer or calves? SOBs will eat anything that can't get out of the way.

 

[Redmt]

I've seen the aftermath of them on old rotted carcasses but not on fresh kill

 

[Black tails]

That might be the award winner for pig damage to a building.. We have had bear put the hurting on stuff but the pigs are in the lead now

I think northern Colorado needs a geography lesson. At least he didn't think it was southern California

I know a little about Northern California. You know, Sacramento, San Fran
