I know most of the dog associations are busy trying hard to just keep us in the woods. But I would like a little more country to hunt. Say 220,000 acres on Ft Hood or corps of engineers land around Belton and Stillhouse Hollow Lakes. Can yall hunt Natl. Forrest? Need somebody with some stroke. Or does everybody got plenty land to hunt?

 I don't understand this one... I read about everybody hunting Natl Forest lands except for in Texas. What's the difference??? As far as I can tell there is just a "leash law" for pets...Huh? La Grange isn't very far from some good east Texas forest land.

I m not sure about corps land and forrest you might can hunt it on foot does anybody know? I coon hunted on corps land when my buddy had it leased for grazing. You can hunt coons on Ft hood with dogs but no hogs. Why not?

You can run dogs in the Crockett, Sabine and Angelina National Forests... not in the Sam Houston.

Call the forest service for more info.

From what I understand....there is a fella out of gatesville that has a contract for the hogs....he makes all the decisions and rules regarding hogs. Apparently dogs are not on his approval list. This is only hearsay

 This figures.. I emailed TPWD and asked them about a year ago and they said no. Couldn't tell me where to find it in the literature, just said no. Well, I would surely like to go cat/coon hunting after deer season. Maybe some hog doggers could point me in the right direction since I won't be after the swine. Best areas to stay away from houses etc. Thanks a lot. This made my day.

Tom, look up the US Forest Service... they make the rules for the national forests.

TPW&D has their hands in the Sam Houston because it's listed as a WMA under their public hunting lands in which you have to buy the $48 annual permit. You can still run dogs in the Sam Houston for cats, coons, squirrels, coyotes, foxes, etc... just not hogs. Evil

That's right and he's got a heck of a racket going there too.  He's got it so that you can't even place a stand or feeder within 150 yards in any direction of his traps.  The good hog areas will have traps almost like they are set in a grid exactly 300 yards apart.  He can shut down a big piece of property with 5 or 6 traps.  You can't use a blood trail dog on Hood either.  I asked a game warden about using a dog to trail a wounded deer and he asked me " Why would you want to wound a deer?"

I hunt the Davey Crockett National forest all the time. I live right in the middle of it. Their are 161,842 acres of public property in Trinity and Houston counties. Got some hogs here but you just have to know where to find them. Just gotta watch out for the game wardens. My buddies got tickets for not wearing orange in Spring while hog hunting down past my house. I thought they could have gotten away with a warning but the warden didnt think so I dont guess.

Yea I have duck, coon, pheasant, dove, and any other kind of dog u want and they all trash on hogs. I'm also so scared of the hogs after my dogs trash on em that I'm obliged to do "something" with the hog. Also have my coon hounds wearing protective vests after watching tv and realising how DANGEROUS wild ferrel hogs are, especially the red eyed ones.  Evil Grin
