I've hunted hogs for years on private land, but never on public. I am planning to hunt the next few months on public land around Granger Lake. Does anyone have some suggested hunting techinques for hunting pigs on public land? Has anyone hunted pigs around Granger Lake?

The best way to hunt hogs at granger lake is to take a boat up the San Gabrial river to more remote hunting sots that don't get alot of foot traffic. there is a small boat launch at unit #7 and a boat ramp for larger boats at Willis Creek park. If you don't have a boat you can allways find hogs in the brush between units #6 and #7.. Good luck and will probably see you out there.. PS. after jan 31 you can bait hogs. soured corn works real good..

Yes, its archery only.
Between #6 and #7, should I park at #6 and walk towards #7 or vice versa?

If you are looking to gun hunt for hogs the public hunting area off of hwy 7 in Robertson county has alot of hogs and you can hunt them until mid march I believe. I can't remember the unit number but it is between kosse and marquez.

I went this evening and was tree branch (in the way) away from getting a shot at a 125# pig right at dusk. Probably at about the time you were posting your response :).
Do you pick a trail and follow it? Or do you find a good trail and just sit on it?

Well I just got back from hunting at #6 this evening. What I usually do is follow a trail untill I get to a thicket then I slowly walk the edge paying close attention to the middle of the thicket that is where they usually bed.. I saw 2 big hogs around 3:30 but didn't get a shot.. saw several deer to bad you can't hunt deer out there.

Did you make it out to Granger tonight? I was planning on going, but it was too nasty. I'm taking a trip to Bandera for some pig/aoudad hunting next weekend. I'm pretty fired up.

Hey Budd,
I have property on the north side of the Robertson County Public hunting Area, Unit 607 and have been wondering how to use the area to hunt and would love to Hog Hunt it. Do you know if I have to purchase a special license to hunt there and do you have any good tips for hunting hog. You are right, there's a ton of hog in that area and we get a lot on our land, I just have never hunted hog and am not sure of the proper/idea method of hunting them. I have a relative up there that traps them, but he might get made if I shot his trappings. Look forward to hearing from ya.
John
