Anyone hunting Flint River WMA Mar 6-11?

[VABadger]

Anyone planning on hunting on the Flint River WMA during the special hog hunt Mar. 6-11? Thinking of heading down there myself, just wondering if anyone wanted to meet up and hunt together. Probably won't make it until the weekend as I am at work all week. Never been there so any info/help on the hogs down there would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Where is this WMA and is it deer rifles or what?

I have heard some reports of the Hogs hanging out nearer the River than up near the fields. Good Luck on your hunt. Hope it isn't too wet.

It is located on the Dooly county side of the Flint River. I would surely like to get out there with you since it is rather close to me. I have walked to the river once in there. Saw lots of tracks, some I thought was a horse. But as far as hunting experience I would be a noob. Yes, is this a special rifle hunt or still small game weapons?

I would be game to try to meet up with a couple of you over there. Keep me posted on plans and consider me in. From what I can find, only requirement is 500 sq. in. of blaze orange.

Life would permit me about any day between 6th and 11th (counting them 2 also) so . . ..

Yes, it's a Special Hog Hunt, blaze orange, no dogs, and big game weapons may be used.

Also says ATVs are allowed 2 hours before sunrise and 2 hours after sunset on open / improved roads / and approved trails, unless otherwise specified. This could be useful.

Deer Rifles allowed from all I can find out also.
