Mainly NW in the Fayetteville area? I saw a map that says the county south of Fayetteville has a good population of wild hogs. Any locals know the scoop?

Its been about 10 years since I last pulled a hopper bottom, but when I did I was in Arkansas a lot. Hauling commodities mainly to various Tyson feed mills for poultry feed. I never saw a hog north of I40. I am sure there are some but get south and they are thick. At least thats the way it was 10 years ago. Often I would haul into a Tyson feed mill in Pine Bluff then go to a Quarry over by Sheridan to get white rock that was bagged up here in KS for walmart. Never once did I go in that quarry without seeing pig tracks. A lot of pig tracks.

My nephew lives around Rogers and he has killed a couple. He showed me around his hunting area a couple of years ago when I was there and there was about as many hog tracks as deer.


Looks like he needs another year;-)

I do not know about north Arkansas, but here in south Arkansas you can not step out of the truck on any old road with out stepping on a hog track. You can not put out corn anywhere down here with out the hogs eating it up. The nick name for the county I live in is Hogskin county they even have a festival called Hogskin festival every year.

I threw a rock out the truck window driving to Waldron and heard a pig squeal.

Most anything is good cooked in bacon grease(except otter)

Mostly turn it all into ground round or breakfast sausage

Hog hunting is like trapping! Put up a good deer blind! You will have hogs all around you!!

I understand that. Would be nice to feed them some grain first but I realize that's hard to do with a wild pig.

Corn! Make a mash or mix it with molasses. Some people put corn in a 5 gal bucket and put cheep beer in it let it ripen. Put that out. They are not to picky.

You can even mix grape cool aid, or other cool aid in your corn. Almost anything sweet.
