The info I get from this site has helped me a lot, but now I'd like to ask you guys something off topic. Hope you don't mind and that it doesn't upset the site owners.... But, Has anyone seen any sightings or signs of hogs in the area? I need some bacon :-)
What area are you? The bait shops around Wappapello have a bunch of photos of guys with hogs they killed
I have land just south of little indian creek conservation area and I get pics of hogs in my food plot alot. my neighbor has killed over 10 now and his land borders the CA. on the south side. all hunting is allowed and you can use a horse on the trails untill the end of oct. please come down here and kill these hogs before they get outa control!!
by the way, thats in franklin and washington counties and 4000 acres.
I saw a couple of them in a bean field off 23 Hwy just North of WW. That's just a few miles South of WAFB. I was surprised to see them there.
if you have them now you will have them from now on. you may do some controlling them but you'll never get shed of them.
mark twain national forrest shell knobb area, equine friendly and hogs everywhere
Down around the Clinton area they had a hog season last year. You could take them with whatever means necessary. I haven't got in on this yet, but I heard you could take them with dogs or a 44, it didn't matter. My friend said that if I do get in, I need to get some sort of test kit to test for certain things to make sure the hog was edible. They are getting closer and closer to KC and the farmers will happily let you come and kill them for free. They eat and destroy everything in site, but they sure taste damn good.
Hi guys, thanks for the replies... I am in Springfield and was hoping to find some around stockton or truman area. But South Point, I'll talk to my hunting buddy and see if we can figure something out... would love to be able to get some hogs and help a fellow crappie fisher too. Keep me posted if you are still seeing them there.
living in springfield shell knob would be a great place, them thing are all over from piney tower to the overlook on 39 highway, just head down lake road 1 and start looking or talking to folks, lots of pigs and big ole bores too. good luck on your hunt
Thanks beagle man, will take a look down there... And South Point, if its ok when we have a few days of slack work could we come see ya and camp out a couple of day and see if we can't reduce the population there a bit ? Maybe get some fishing in too ?
Thanks Beagle, guessing you're from this areas too ? Maybe if we get a pig or two you'd like to join us for a pig roast ? :-)
I was in Springfield wed afternoon and saw 2 hogs and a pig at Big Whiskey over on replubic.
Thanks Beagle, might give it a try down there, at the moment things are put on hold, my hunting buddy has a problem with an ulcer, doc is worried it might be eating into his small intestine... dang ya just can't rely on the youngun's these days...lol
Had heard they were around Windsor crossing on Truman but never saw any till this morning.Car had hit a big one just north of the bridge on PP.:eek:
eyesore we killed several on lake road 1 5 miles east of 39, north of shell knob, not bad eating, have cooker will travel
Hey guys, keep the reports coming in, one way or another thee is gonna be a pig cooking, anyone that is close enough to come will be welcome... Beagle... quit the eyesore remarks, I know I'm butt ugly but the hogs think I'm pretty :-) lol

Hey Beagle I was ignoring it, takes a lot to offend me. Ya not too far off with the butt ugly... The reason for the handle is I'm just a Dumb A$$ Brit.... lol
eyeore, one thing you need to know ,,,,,,don't ever ignore me, reason, I may say something important and you wont want to miss it. brit huh. rather i must say. later thanks for playing along.
South Point... Looks like work is gonna be a bit slow for a few weeks, Can't make labor day weekend, But... If the weekend after is ok, would it be ok to come there and try and take some of them hogs from you ?... Have you seen them lately, if their still about could you bait them for us ? we'd probably drive down on the friday and leave sunday, it sure would be good to meet you especially if we could get some good fishing in during the day.
