anyone on here know of any feral pigs taken out of washington state? Really lookin to bag one with the bow and well I hear a little bit here and there about pigs over on the coast but does anyone know the real scoop on the pig situation?
-
i once looked into it along time ago. i heard something about them being on the olympic penninsula :dunno:
-
sorry this obviously was suppose to be in the other big game forum
-
i've heard stories about them but have never seen one and no one I know has ever seen one. good luck though.
-
i have never seen any sign yet in where they once were, most are shot out if not all of them i think. ive heard theres supposed to be a few still left on the coast some where but i got no clue. could just be guys talkin bs to, that can happen :chuckle:
-
According to the Gammies and Parkies on the coast...they are all gone.
Used to see a few between the park and the rez but that has been over ten years ago.

pig hunting sounds fun. I was wondering about the same. i think a good spot would be outta state. might be a long ways to travel for a pig though???? good luck. let us know if there are any you find.
-
i have seen domestic pigs turned out but people usally get to them really quick.mmm bacon

Hit the wine country in California - they are thick and the vineyards hate them. Fun hunt too.
-

You have a better chance at shooting a 200+lbs Cougar with a bow than you do shooting a wild pig in washington state with a rifle.

Yeah, I think the pig thing in WA is an urban legend :chuckle:
-
My cousin who used to log the Wynoochie claims to have shot one over 20 years ago off of Donkey Creek. Don't know if I buy it or not.

Down in Puyallup there was a great place for pig hunting. It was just off Valley Ave. It was called the Firwood - lots of pigs - tended to congregate there after sunset on the weekends. That place burnt down a few years back, so I don't know where they go now. :dunno:

there was pigs in the wynoochee area but are gone now. A guy I ran into fishing a 2 or 3 years ago shot one with his bow that year down by mossyrock while he was elk hunting in the late season I saw the pic it was a big pig seems like he said it was 3 something.
-
Yeah, just head to downtown Aberdeen on a Friday night.
-
comon now....we dont call'em pigs in aberdeen..............we call'em harborsaurases
-
I saw three small barrows, 35lbs each or so, up the Chiwawa River Rd in Chelan Co. on the WNF several years ago. They were obviously recently dumped there by someone. If I had been packing a gun, I would have brought them home.
-
I've got one I am willing to "plant" in the capitol forest if interested :chuckle: she is a pain in my ass
