Hunting Hogs, Some of what I know!

Anyone familiar with the Truman Reservoir/Lake area?  That looks to be the closest with a pretty heavy proliferation.

I was wondering that too.  Is there public land available for hunting?  A camping/hog hunting weekend would be fun and not too expensive.

Whoa....stop the drool......      Need to scope out the deer/ turkey seasons.

•No permit is needed to pursue feral hogs except during deer and turkey seasons. See deer and turkey regulation booklets for details.

I have a nephew that lives outside Warsaw on an acreage. He said that it is on the NE side of Truman dam, and he can walk to the lake from his trailer home. I will contact him and get some info from one of the "locals". Might be able to put something together for property access. Stay tuned.

Regs during deer & turkey seasons:

Feral hogs may be taken in any number throughout the
year. During most of the year, no permit is required and any
method, including baiting and the use of dogs, is allowed.
However, special restrictions apply during the fall firearms
deer and turkey hunting seasons.
During all portions of the fall firearms deer season:
? you must possess a valid, unfilled firearms deer or small
game hunting permit;
? you must abide by the methods of pursuit allowed for
deer listed on Page 11;
? you must abide by any other restrictions that may apply
on specific public areas.
During the November portion statewide and the
antlerless portion in open areas:
? if you have a deer permit you may only use methods
allowed for deer;
? if you have a small game permit you may only use a
.22 caliber or smaller rimfire cartridge or a shotgun with
shot not larger than No. 4;
? you may not use dogs to pursue feral hogs during these
portions of the firearms deer season.
During the youth and muzzleloader portions statewide,
and the urban zones portion in open areas:
? if you have a deer permit you may use methods allowed
for deer;
? if you have a small game permit you may use methods
allowed for small game.
During the fall firearms turkey hunting season:
? if you are hunting on a Fall Firearms Turkey Hunting
Permit, you may only use methods allowed for turkey.
? if you are hunting on a small game hunting permit, you
may use methods allowed for small game.
Note: Resident landowners and lessees on their land are
not required to have any permit, and they may use any
method or means to take feral hogs throughout the year,
including during all portions of the firearms deer and
turkey hunting seasons.

I was sent a link that is somewhat relevant and thought I would share it. It seems to be very much a "How Not to Hunt The Wild Hog" video!!
