That is ridiculous. A wild hog is a nuisance animal. You should not have to pay anything to hunt them. We don’t in FL but I guess we have tourist money and you don’t so you rip off your own citizens as well as out of state hunters. I never understood why your state did that other than to rip off folks.


Hell they gave me a ticket last year for lighting one up after the 30 min past sundown thing. Wrote me up for night hunting....... rolleyes I told him it wasn't like I was out shooting deer at night and he said "Might as well have been...... it's the same thing". rolleyes rolleyes rolleyes

Luckily the Judge was levelheaded about it and sentenced me to community service which entailed working with a bunch of kids at the WMA during their annual youth hunt in Feb. Said if I satisfied that they would take it off my record. I went and enjoyed it so much I'm going back next year. The Game Warden that ticketed me was at the Youth Hunt and acted like an ass to me the entire time. Every other Game and Fish offense that day in court was fined $2500 so I am thankful the judge heard me out.
