One More Day and its a pig hunt for me, very Jazzed

[OPAH]

Sorry Guys I did a new post, it was IS there a hunter Heaven, yes there is and I have been there.

Even though the Pigs didn't show the Ranch was full of Life !!
First morning in the dark hiking our way out to a Meadow set of Blinds
I am startled by the sound of flapping wings BIG WINGs, just enough
light to see shadows of the Cows lumbering around and some fleeting
movement in the back ground, (Coyotes?) and then GOBBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE
from across the meadows then GOBBLE HERE AND GOBBLE there, Geeez
My Guide was getting a little annoyed with me and my excitement of having
all these Toms flying out of there high roasts, He shushes me again and tells
me to pick up my feet, I was making to much noise in the mist of this GOBBLE Fest
around Me. OK time to focus, still to dark to see the twigs and branches on the ground
but am now really doing my best to step gentler and quitter.
We get to the Far east end of the meadow / meadows ? not sure if it was one huge or
smaller separate meadows, either or there we were get comfortable shed a layer of
clothing and get quite and still.
we hunted the meadows and one out of 3 higher platues morning and evening hunts
but the pigs were vacant, plenty of sign but it looks like they have been nocturnal with
the warmer weather.
Flocks of wild Turkeys of 20 plus, Quail, Deer, Pig, Elk and Varmint Hunting galore Coyote and tons of
squirrels. I have Officially fallen in love with this place

Thank u very much for your wild pig hunting adventure story I appreciate it. Still what we’re the actual times did u start in the morning, before sunrise after sunrise, mid day. And how long did u stay out till, Before sunset right at sunset till last leagal shooting time. It’s important because hunting full moon weekends are different then partial or no moon hunts which can cause them to get nocturnal and if it’s other reasons I can give u tips and pointers that could help u in future hunts, ready to watch movie now, ok.......tra

Hey Now....lol I wasn’t watching Wonder Women that’s for sure....lol Bubble, I wanted the info on the hunt time out in the field out of curiosity of his unsuccessful hunt because he said the pigs were being nocturnal and when they hold up that hard u have to use different strategies to hunt them in those situations as u so we’ll know so timing and being in the right spot can make a big difference when they are being nocturnal. I am going to start a post on this situation and we can all chime in and share helpful info for noob or unexpierance pig hunter. Great to hear from u again my friend!......tra

Would probably be applicable if this were a Movie Forum, but alas......it's a Hunting Forum.

So Tra what advice would you give ?
we covered before light 45 minutes to in the dark 45 minutes to an hour
figured the afternoons would be a waste.
The area is very dry to would it should be this time of year
where mushrooms would be everywhere there are none
wallowing holes are few.
No real rooting going on
Positive side there are tracks and paths are being used,
basically to and from wetter areas and areas with more food
So our plan is waiting for Rain and cooler weather and keeping tabs on when they are moving.
we should start busting them during legal twilight hours
