Highwater- my thoughts exactly. The good news is I went back today and bayed the same hogs in the exact same spot; this time I had some help. Caught two nice hogs (one boar and one sow). The 2-3 real big hogs in the group must have slipped out the back door. Going to try again tomorrow.
The best news was my Maltese plott pup made both hogs from start to finish.
