Pig Problem
Two Nights in the Field with Bear Guides from Maine
Every Hog Hunt is different, and sometimes the Pigs make you work for it. This past Hunting Trip was a 2 Night Hog Hunt with a group of Bear Guides from Maine. The first night was slow, with no Wild Pigs down. But on the second night, things got interesting.
Night One:
Plenty of Ground, No Pigs Down
The first night, we covered a lot of ground but didn’t get the results we were hoping for. That’s just how it goes sometimes—Wild Hogs are unpredictable, and they can disappear when you least expect it. But even without any Hogs on the ground, it was still a good night in the field, and the guys had plenty of stories to share about Guiding Bear hunts in Maine.
Night Two:
The Sounder Appears
The second night, luck turned in our favor. We spotted a Sounder of about 20 to 30 Hogs and made our approach. Moving carefully with the wind right, we closed in to about 100 yards before the Hunters took their shots. Two Wild Hogs went down, though one was just a Small Piglet—not exactly ideal for a trophy photo.
Hunting and Swapping Stories
Even when the Feral Hogs aren’t flooding the fields, the best part of these Thermal Hunts is the experience. These guys were Seasoned Hunters, and it was great to hear all about Bear Hunting up north—how they track and bait, the thrill of a close encounter, and the challenges of guiding in deep woods. It’s always cool to compare different styles of hunting, and this Hog Hunting Trip was a reminder of how much there is to learn from other Hunters.
