I've been thinking with this sleet and crap on the ground now might be a good time to go check it out and see if I can find a hog, anybody have any starting points? What weapons are legal to hunt with right now?

Pretty sure everything closed on Feb 28th.

I think you can still gun hunt beavers and *****. But ***** only at night.

 

[frogleg]

Had to double check it. Yep on the **** hunting at night but beaver hunting is over but you can still trap them.

Check your WMA regs if you are hinting a WMA.

 

[Smokeater5]

Def check the wma regs. I just looked at the statewide regs, not wma.

Be sure to voice your opinion on AGFC web site for next year they are trying to close hog hunting on some WMA's because trapping is better. I've hunted areas were they had traps and I think if they put bait in there it would work better. I hunt big lake and the guy that was baiting traps retired 2yrs ago and that was the last time the trap was baited. The hogs still come and check for food.

And you must use whatever method of kill is allowed for whatever is in season. Not sure I'd want to strike out after hogs with a 22. Not sure what you can use for beaver.
