From what little I have seen pigs are funny. You can go to a piece of property where they are and it will look like someone took a middle buster plow through the woods and you can go to a property a mile away and not see sign of a pig ever being there.

I read all these articles about the large number of wild hogs in Alabama and I've yet to see one. I'm 53 years old grew up in Marshall County and live way out in the country in Calhoun County now. I hunt all over this state and I have NEVER even seen one. I don't believe all the stuff I read about how many there are. Even the Game Wardens were talking about how big a problem they are in Choccolocco Mgmt Area but they only let you hunt them for 1 week or so. Now don't you think if they were a big problem they would have a longer season? I think it's all Hogwash! And I suppose you think all these dead pig pictures were created with photoshop? Come look at the dried pig blood in the back of my pickup.. I have video of the kills if that's not good enough for ya.

Yeah people whine about having hogs on their hunting land but I haven't even found anyone who will let me buy a hog hunting permit. People will sell the turkey hunting rights on their club but won't let someone kill pigs, I don't get it.

Ok then it looks there are a few hogs around but when I read the articles it makes it out like they are all over Alabama and they are taking over. That is not true. If they really wanted to get rid of the hogs in Choccolocco then why don't they let people hunt em more than 1 week. Doesn't really sound like it's a big problem there. For those who have been hunting pigs for a long time see how they are spreading. I've only been hunting them two years and the pigs have tripled or quadrupled where I hunt. Game cameras and kill numbers from one year to the next don't lie. Look at the Feral Swine Mapping system done by UGA and see how Alabama's hog population has filled in.

Ok then why don't they allow hunting feral pigs on the mgmt area other than 4 days or 1 week? Are they trying to protect them? Well that would be a good question for the game warden or state wildlife agency. I have many issues with Alabama's hunting laws. For one if they consider pigs bad enough to have no season or limit why can't we hunt them at night with night vision? Let's face it your best kill times in the summer are at night. No lasers or night vision according to the law. Those types of laws are playing heavily into the pig's favor and it shows.

People will sell the turkey hunting rights on their club but won't let someone kill pigs, I don't get it. I get it. Because there is not wild pig problem in Alabama. Mgmt areas don't let you hunt them hardly at all. There is no night hunting allowed and people are charging up to $600.00 to take others on a hog hunt! All this would not be happening if there was a true problem.

I haven't had access to hog land since I moved from Monroeville. If anybody has some and wants some help, let me know.

I moved from tuscaloosa earlier this year and we had hogs on our club there but I havent seen or heard of any over here around the Pell City/ Lincoln area. Glenncmp, they are down Hwy 231 past Cropwell in the area of camp and dry creek roads.. that entire area is full of pigs.
