To make a long story short, yesterday there was a 4 hour hole in our ever-present rain in the middle of the afternoon, so I hit the woods. I usually still hunt/stalk, but the spot where I usually stalk is now completely overgrown with smilax, wild grape and Japanese climbing fern from all this rain. You can't see more than 10 yards in most directions. Of course, this is hog central. Anyway, at 4:00 PM I set up outside the fence around this area at a mudhole that had about 1000 fresh tracks. After sitting there for 2 hours, I heard a grunt less than 50 yards away in the woods. I found a trail and walked to within 10 feet of 5 bedded down hogs under a big mess of wild grape. I heard them getting up and even got down on my belly trying to see under all that undergrowth, but all I could see was movement as they sauntered away. As I came out of the woods in disgust, I looked at my weather app to check on the progress of the next storm heading my way, I noted that the "feels like" temp was 105.
Anyway, I'm getting frustrated with these hogs holing up in this little chunk of jungle in the middle of my property. I don't have any dogs and don't know anyone who does, so I'm pretty much relying on them moving/feeding to get them. I only hunt the place once a week at most, so there's not a lot of pressure. BTW, night hunting is legal in Georgia.
When do you guys see the most hog feeding activity?
