No permit needed for night hog hunting?

With dogs I think, no firearms

If you hold a valid Louisiana Basic Hunting License, you may take feral hogs (where legal) year-round during legal daylight shooting hours. See current regulations for more information, including taking feral hogs on wildlife management areas and other public lands.

On private property, the landowner, or his lessee or agent with the landowner’s written permission and contact information in his possession, may take feral hogs at night from the last day of February to the last day of August of that same year. They must have an Outlaw Quadruped, Nutria, and Beaver Night Take Permit to take feral hogs at night from September 1 through the last day of February of the following year.

Yep. We got a permit to hunt them at night during deer season.

Act 175 of 2020

The act at the link was passed and signed by the governor. It becomes effective 8/1/2020. I presume this is what your friend was referring to. It looks like you need to give 24 hours advance notice to the Sheriff.

Cant wait to give a bi-monthly call to the sheriff to shoot pigs on my own land

First time I called the Sheriff Department after the law passed they asked me why I was calling them.They didn’t know anything about the law or requirement to notify them.

we would have to call everyday. its at least 3-4 times a week one of the retirees kills pigs at night. whenever we see them on the spy point we head that way.
