Best pig hunts near Utah?

[Critter]

A friend lives just outside of Dallas and drives truck. He says that there are signs all over the place for pig hunters, but once you stop to check you find out that they want a trespass fee among other things.

Another friend has been down to hunt pigs with Red Dirt Outfitters and he has had a great time. I think that their only contact information is on FB

Thanks Moose. Just wondering after I read about no need for a license if you are a rancher protecting his property or the "agent of a rancher" but if hunting for meat or a trophy you need a license. I didn't know if a rancher could/would call you his "agent" and allow you to hunt??? Anyway, it sounds as if the pig hunts in Texas are like everything else on Texas private property...pay too hunt. Thank god for public ground

I would highly recommend Shawn Chittim at SC2 Outdoors in Redding, CA. I've known him since high school and he runs a top-notch operation. 100% opportunity on some great hogs in the rolling oak hills of Nor Cal. 10 hour drive from SLC and way nicer country than Texas. You should combine the hog hunting with a fishing trip on the Sacramento River for trout on the upper Sac or Stripers on the lower. Shawn does those trips too.

Only drawbacks related to hunting CA are that you can't use an AR-15 and you are required to use lead-free ammunition. --------SS
