I recently moved and I am in Andersonville, Anderson County. Where is my closest best bet to bag a pig or two?
I hadnt heard much of that. is that happening around the plateau? Im sure youll have some guys over reaching their land boundaries much like coon huntersAround here they ride around in full sized pick up trucks at night and use their thermals to poach private land. They shoot at homes, kids, widows, harass and stalk the landowners where they want to hunt and they do it all right in front of TWRA. Only time they get caught is if they don't spot the game wardens first before they shoot and when they get caught its not near what it should be. We can't even hunt our own property because of the obvious safety concerns.
Here is a very broad answer to your Question. your in a pretty good area to get around to some pig hunting. Always check the Regs on each specific WMA. and this is true for all areas I will mention - Go DEEP into the mountains/valleys in the thickest/steepest stuff people dont go or youll never see a pig.I recently moved and I am in Andersonville, Anderson County.

Yeah its Overton County. I live in the thermal road poacher hellhole capitol of the world along with my poor neighbors. It started last fall when some hogs showed up and TWRA issued year around coyote night permits to some cow farmers/renters up the road and they apparently invited the whole state to road hunt everyone else's property at night as well. We have at least 40 people that's involved in a road poaching ring. Ive challenged the alledge poacher that shot directly at my house to a fist fight. I undergo constant intense stalking and harrassment at night with thermals. Ive been vandalized and stolen from during this time. They harass the game wardens when they discover them the same as they harass the landowners when they are discovered on their on property. Ive spent 3K on a hog trap that i have baited and set.I hadnt heard much of that. is that happening around the plateau?

Ive patrolled our property at night for the last 17 nights until at least 3 am. Most of the time i go until 5 am. Had one thermal scanner show up last night at 1:30 am but they didn't shoot this time. Patrolling is the only way the neighbors kids can sleep without the constant gun fire in the street at night. TWRA is not out here monitoring their year around night seasons and they know it. Its not just the worst thing that's ever happened to hunting, its the worse thing that's ever happened to our community.
You know any of them roadhunters that ride around at night shooting at people, pestering people at their homes, monitoring other peoples land with thermals against their will?I thermal hunt Overton county. several farms there loaded with hogs.
I know alot of people that have thermals. At night when we're out hunting you hear gunshots all around.You know any of them roadhunters that ride around at night shooting at people, pestering people at their homes, monitoring other peoples land with thermals against their will?
Do you know any of the ones that get in their trucks and ride around and hunt other peoples land against their will?I know alot of people that have thermals. At night when we're out hunting you hear gunshots all around.
No. We ride around and find pigs outta the truck to cover more ground but only shoot on farms We have permits for.Do you know any of the ones that get in their trucks and ride around and hunt other peoples land against their will?
From one hog hunter to another don't become more unwanted than the hogs themselves because that is what has taken place in our community. Id rather have a 100 hogs than one thermal road scanner.Don't worry Planking isn't trying to accuse you of doing it. It's only his 1,000 post about thermal poachers. Everyone has heard at this point. Every topic gets turn into thermal poachers when he post. You keep shoot all of them we're you have permits for. It's an effect and fun tool to remove unwanted hogs!
