Anybody ever hunt here? just wondering i got here about a month ago and have been here in the woods every weekend trying to find the sign but to no prevale ive tried spot lighting, looking for rubs and rutting nothing am i doing somthing wong? The natural resorce lady on base says the trapper catches 100-130 a month with numbers like that i think there would be some sort of sign there here.


Thanks for the help, Brandon

I've been all over hood too, seen a few tracks etc. there are hogs there, but they are spotty. if you haven't seen it already, there is a map in the back room of the sportsmans center that shows the hog hot spots. I quit setting up on hood because of the thieves, and because of the rule that you can't hunt within 150 yards of a trap. that rule allows the trappers to shut down some pretty good spots (like the two ponds on the south side of area 36) with just a few traps. I'll probably mostly stay out of there unless they say I can run my dogs, which I'm sure they won't. good luck and lock your stuff down. by the way, if you do find a honey hole, keep it to yourself, unless you have somebody you really trust not to spread it around, or you want to tell mehttp://texashoghunter.com/images/images/forum/emoticons/mrgreen.gif

Thats what i kinda figured about hood cause fort sill was the same way except you were not allowed to bait.
And just like sill i see that people here would like to take others hard work and use it else were for their own use. I had stands stolen from me at Sill and that blew all my confidence in hunting on a military installation and why i look for places off post.
