Wallows ---- When???
In Texas what time of day are the hogs hitting the water? 100 degrees in South Texas

Depends entirely on the hunting pressure. If there isn't any it can be anytime. If they're hunted is goes toward late afternoon into the night. Moon cycle has a lot to do with it also.


"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

I was fishing in a tank Saturday evening around 6:30 to 7 and had two different groups of pigs wander in for a drink, plus a doe and a buck.

This time of year you can often jump them at or near the tanks during the day. They will come to water off and on as well.

We hunted this past weekend and took three hogs. I wanted to bloody my new 375 H&H and get used to shooting it in the field. It will in fact kill hogs.

Good Hunting,

Bob

Here are some shots from last weekend.

Yours truly with hog #1.


This is hog #2.


This is my buddy with hog #3.

As hot and dry as it is they aren't going to be too far from water. They're going to be nesting fairly close to a wallow so find a well used one and wait them out. I'd go early in the morning or in the evening late. Good luck.


The Hunt goes on forever, the season never ends.

I didn't learn this by reading about it or seeing it on TV. I learned it by doing it.
