Our coyote trapper started a contract yesterday. He has caught 4 yotes, 1 bobcat, and 3 coons so far. He is adding 65 coon cuffs today and tomorrow. That total should really climb.
Starting night hunts with clients Friday night. The ole hog total should start to climb as well.
We are at 77 so far.

trapped 4 last night. Finally!! 2 boars and 2 sows. All about 50#'s. Found a big pig that apparently was drowned in the Christmas flood. Biggest set of cutters I've seen since I started helping here.
The harder I practice, the luckier I get.

Have I ever said I hate a full moon/almost full moon. It is amazing how much it seems to impact night time activity.

Boy does it make a difference when the farmers start putting seed in the ground. Went down to south Russell County this past Thur and Fri nights and killed 16. Killed 12 in one freshly planted corn field. My brother is going to go back and guard it again a couple of nights this week. It still amazes me how hogs can smell a freshly planted field. They seem to file in from everywhere.

The night hunting and the trapping have been on fire lately. I caught 39 (23 and 16) in a single trap last week in just a 5 day period. Both catches were daylight catches too.
241 total so far this year.

Just got a call from a client in Bullock County. He has caught 146 in 8 weeks with a single camera and gate. He has built 3 corrals and is baiting 6 sights. He is moving the electronics and gate around as needed. He caught a sounder last night of 34.
Dang trapping has been on fire lately. It seems the sows dropped little ones everywhere in Feb and they are just now getting out good with mom and the rest of the sounder. Really making the totals look good. Glad we can catch them before they get big enough to start doing some damage.

My brother took a crew out and killed another 12 last night. We have killed 49 hogs off of one planted corn field in Barbour County in the past 13 days. We hunted it 6 times.
Had clients catches yesterday of 7 and 19.

Hell yes. Good job! I need to get in the woods and see if those little ones are making mom's job harder in the TNF. Maybe find a few morrells too.

Had a group of guys hunting with us this week from PA. They had a great trip. Killed 12 on a night hunt, 11 during the day hunts, and shot a ton of bullets killing 19 in a trap. And they were dang sure entertaining as well.

We are at 288 for the year so far. I think that is about 30 ahead of last year at this date. Going to have to pick it up if we are going to break 1,000 for the year.

Closed out the month of April finally. I am so happy to see turkey season close each year. Now I can get on a lot more properties.
We are at 325 for the year now. Up 50 over last year to date.
And we are up 33 on the female to male ratio. We were up 50+ until April. Dang if this past month wasn't a boar killing month.

398 to date.
We are still ahead of last year but it sure seems like we are having to work harder for them. Some of the older properties we have been working are beat down pretty hard. But, that is a good thing for the landowners.
