Will be watching this post closely. I plan on going somewhere after deer season.

Lower delta is full of hogs but for the most part is accessible by only boat and some of the worst terrain I have ever been in.

Never been in the Lower Delta but the upper Delta will swallow you up if you aint careful.

We bayed a hog 350 yards off the river bank on the last hog dog hunt and it took me 45 minutes to get to them. You will sink out of sight and the only thing to grab is razor sharp palmettos

Bayed up, I believe you just answered if I want to look at lower Delta. I'm hoping to get to a wma in Alabama in December. Was planning on northern Alabama but would rather head further south. Hopefully some of you guys that know the area can send me in the right direction. I figured I will have to use small game guns.

You will be fine with that boat. Shoot them right out the boat in the lower delta. Just ride till you see some on the bank. Trolling motor is key.
You dont want to go walking around... You are going to be a muddy mess if you do. Much easier to safari hunt em out the boat...

Pole through the sloughs or trolling motor until you hear them or see them on the bank and either shoot them or put a stalk on them.

An aldeer delta hog hunt would be a good time!
There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??

Aint no hogs in north alabama but a few small pockets to my knowledge. And its bow only. Gotta go south of birmingham i think. They had a few hogs in wheeler just in one little area. But i think they killed most of em. Jackson county wma was bow only and had a small pocket of them. Bankhead was good a few years ago but i dont see the numbers like i did before. Id go way south

Seven Mile Island and Lauderdale WMAs have a few hogs these days too in NW Bama. Might be worth a look for somebody.

Yeah, I went to seven Mile island several months back. I really enjoyed it. I was planning on stopping by there for a day hunt when I head to south Alabama. Saw lots of sign. Heard some pigs at dark but couldn't get on any.

Jimmymorgan, you can use your deer rifle on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of rifle season in the lower delta. PM me if I can help you further.

I have a 16' flat bottom boat. Is the Mobile Delta like a WMA? I would appreciate any pointers so I can order a map and plan a trip.
