Though it's been around 20 years, I did hunt the Fennessey and was there a couple of other times as well, including photographing another hunter who won a contest I ran. I was also there just for photos on another occasion.

The hogs back then were in abundance, and I hear it is much the same today. With thick vegetation and miles of Mission River frontage, it's a heavenly haven for wild hogs.

Like I said, it has been a while, but back then, the folks were extremely pleasant, worked with my crazy schedules -- and had very VERY nice accommodations right there on the water in Bayside.

Here's a hog I bagged on the Fennessey despite poor weather conditions during the hunt. A front had blown in, it rained most of the day and the wind was gusting to 30/35 mph. But the guide (Brian, if I remember correctly) was persistent and managed to get me on some hogs despite the odds.

Bobby,
Thanks for the info.

I think I used to have a cap like that too! Big Grin
