I go on an annual hog hunting weekend trip with some colleagues and this coming weekend is it. Calling it hog hunting is a bit of a stretch since it's usually just drinking, cooking, and occasionally sitting in a box stand over an overgrown foot plot in the evening that hasn't been maintained since the end of deer season. This is the only hunting in LA I really do all year so it's not like I have much knowledge about it, but I know it's gonna be warm and wouldn't think it's an ideal time. It's usually about 6-8 of us that go and no more than 4 of us ever really go sit in a stand.

Questions:
Any tips to make our hunts more successful?

Is early morning better than evening?

Other than scattering corn over the plots and lanes, any other advice?

With the warm weather, would stalking be a good idea?

TIA

Get somebody to spread corn all week before you get there

fwiw, I wouldn't ever consider stalking hogs to be a good idea, as they are sometimes aggressive.

they are much more active at night, but I am not sure whether that is legal. call the wildlife and fisheries in that area to ask. if it is legal to shoot at night and you want to do it, be sure to let the local law enforcement folks know what is going on, so they don't think you are illegally hunting deer.
