Feral Pigs in AZ

[COBOHNTR09]

Can anyone tell me if they've had any experience hunting these pigs near the Nevada border (Mud Mtn) up around the strip area.

Any info would be great Thanks!

I've never hunted the pigs before , but I have gotten plenty of pics of these pigs on trail cameras . I know someone who works for the BLM and he is an avid pig hunter out there, he is willing to take me almost anytime . Just southeast of Mud mountain there is a herd of 7 or 8 pigs . Ide valley, just north of Mud MTN is a herd of pigs . Luke Thompson says they're all the way out to Poverty now .

I helped my buddy on his 13b hunt this year and we saw quite a few pigs on Mud Mnt. He saw two groups on the northwest side of Mud and I kicked a big boar at 10 yards on the southwest side. He should have shot some but he was focused on deer.

I guess everyone saw the pigs this year on mud in 13b. We also saw them this year twice on the southwest corner of mud. Bruin4L do i know you? Where you in our camp with evan, kip, hunter, and me dave. I begged someone to pound the whole heard right where they stood. Did anyone hear of a single pig shot out of that heard this year?

Right on utarchery, was it on the archery or rifle? I wanted to shoot one so bad, but everyone i was with didnt want to scare the deer. Can you post a pic of it? Was it a male of female. It would have been an absolute shootout if i would have had the gun in my hand. I dont know why those things got me so cranked up , but they did.

No Couesmagnet, we were a DIY camp in Hidden Cyn. I wish he had unloaded on the group of pigs he saw- a sow and 7 piglets! He was worrie.d about having to deal with them when they were down but I told him that I would show him my coyote cleaning method and recipe

There was another herd of about 4 or 5 i thought near the road that climbs up mud on the west? I think those coyotes would have done a fine job on the clean up. Would of been worth revisiting a day later . Could you imagine rolling up on that party of dogs. It would of been round 2.

Great info guys. From what I've read there's no license needed to hunt these pigs. Is there anything I'm missing, other than a big chunk of ham? ha I appreciate all the info!

I know there is no tag needed and these pigs are not managed by the department, but you may want to check with game and fish if a hunting license is needed as you will be hunting- probably will not need it, but it would not hurt to check.

 

[COBOHNTR09]

No doubt. Will definately check, Thanks!

I would be interested in hunting some sometime. Would anybody be willing to point me in the right direction or even come with?

I will get the beer and food!

I am out of Las Vegas and do have 4 wheel drive/all equipment.
