I hunt in norther and central CA - it used to be that pigs were free the I think it went to $5 for 5 and now that the state is broke it's $20 per pig. I have hunted in texas a lot a love it. $35 for an out of state exotics lic. and you are good to go. I would move there if I could talk my wife into it. Anywhere you can hunt year round, have silencers and shoot someone that comes on your property in self defense is great.
Hey Boomshack,
I'm also in central/nor-cal (Los Gatos). I'm looking for somebody to tag along with on a first pig-hunt. I've hunted for Deer years ago with my Dad and am now getting back into hunting.
I'm also lucky in that I got a draw for Deer X3B (my first ever attempt at an X zone), and I have access to 800 acres private, surrounded by N.F. there. Dad and I will be going up there in Oct.

I live in the Fresno/Clovis area. That was a good video, typical Central Coast pig hunting. I've hunted a bit southeast of there out of Parkfield.
And my wife won't let us move to Texas either.

I am in Merced, CA - north of Fresno - Just hunted two weeks ago in the hills outside of Colinga and downed a nice hog. It's really HOT as you all know. Everything is moving at night.
Dean - good luck on the Deer tag - using your 6.8? I am always ready to go hunting, it's just about finding the property to go around here. I have access to a couple of spots, but it's too hot right now and unless we get special tags, we can't hunt at night.

Yeah I'll be using my Mini-68, just mounted up a Burris 4-9x40 but haven't had a chance to range-zero it yet just the laser-bore-sight zero. I grew up in Fresno/Clovis, and have ridden motorcycles (both street and dirt) all around San Benito and South Monterey County. If you ever need a partner, Parkfield/Coalinga is not too far away for me.

I'm trying to put together a hunt in Gilroy on a friends property who is having piggy problems the 14th or 16th of August. Was the lady in the video wearing multicam pants ?

If any of you have NV equipment I might be able to get some depredation tags for a friends ranch. The hogs are coming in at 1 am or so and are gone by day light. It's an almond orchard. I have to check with DFG to make sure we can use NV but I thing with these tags we can.
