I have been to horse creek twice looking for hogs, and I have yet to see any hogs or much sign of one. Saturday the river was out of the banks so I walked down both sides of the river at the landing hoping to see some sign but no luck. I then went to the upper end of the wma across the highway and no luck there either. Anybody got any advise this public land hunting is relatively new to me?
Thanks, Eli

Go to the far south west corner of the wma you should find fresh sign there

Hogs have been scattered since the state made baiting legal. The adjoining clubs keep them pulled off the WMA. You can put some leather on the ground and find some.

I walked probably around 8 miles the other day. Saw some sign but no pork. It was depressing.RC

You will be hard pressed too see a hog out in the daylight here in the mountains.

Hunted from Horse Crick on down through the WMA's along the Altamaha to Darien the past 5 days in between the rain and wind and saw one sow on the Plantation WMA. Little sign on the others. Did see piles of turkeys on Horse Crick and a fair number of deer but what was odd was the amount of uneaten acorns. They were everywhere, even a fair amount of the water oaks were still on the ground. Everything was flooded but between the storms the critters were out and about. Beats me on the hogs. This guy was cold in the 55 degree weather but not cold enough stand up for himself.

Ft Stewart I guess in a few weeks will see my tracks next.

God willing and the creek don't rise again Robert. Hope it dries out some by then and that you didn't get to much trash washed up in your yard from the flooding. What a mess.
