We turned out my lulu dog, and my buddy jamie's dog flip. Roaded them for about an hour and didn't get on a dang thing.
We came to a halfway dry marsh and the dogs beelined it right to the center and caught a lil boar hog, we cut him and both of the dogs relayed. Lulu went to the north and Flip went to the south. We waited about an hour with Lulu at a mile and Flip at a six hundred or so yards. Lulu must've got smoked, she got within a few hundred yards of us and Flip lets out a few barks, and she went to him. They were both together but not really baying, they would just let a bark out every 30 seconds or so. They weren't moving, so we headed to em. They were about 50 yards in a myrtle head, but it was grown up BAD in lagodium vines. I don't know if ya'll know what lagodium vines are, but they are rank. They will grow up over trees and make a mat about a foot thick, with tunnels running through the inside, when you walk on them it feels like your on a trampoline! Anyways, we can see the dogs outside a clump of vines, can't see the hog though. Turn the catch dog loose and he finds a hole and catches. We are trying to rip through the vines to get in there, but it wasn't workin at all! I was literally on top of the hog, every time he slung his head he would pick me up. He shook the catch dog and hit a hole and tried to make a getaway. I wasn't letting this sob get away! I dove on top of him, bear hugged and the cur dogs each grabbed an ear! Got him flipped and tied! Checked the dogs over and no serious cuts surprisingly. He was a barr hog, bout 225 with some good thick shanks on him!
