wild boar
 
my son is begging me to take him looking for wild boar and i have a general idea of where to go sangudo or lac st anne or highway 22 near mayothorpe also hear some rumors of some near east pit if anyone here might be able to narrow an area down for us i would be much apprieciated and if you would like to come along you are more than welcome planning on going thursday and friday so if your interested gimmie a shout on pm also wondering if there is any areas of crown land near the hog ranch that might be holding some pigs? was reading some rep0orts from lac st anne county and they were saying the pig numbers are very low is there any way to get an estimate of numbers and a general area that might have the most ? im not looking for your hot spot just an idea were may be holding the most number to increase our odds my son is 9 and pretty ecited to get one me too lol .

Good luck

kinda what i figured but thanx anyways wish us luck looks like we will need it , doesnt matter its still a good way to spend time with the boy. Always have to remind myself to forget the mission and just make the hunt a good time so the kids learn to enjoy the sport as well.

Matt L. 03-12-2009 12:14 AM

Just try to make sure you shoot a young one. If ya get an old one ya won't be eatin' it. Tough and gamey. Good luck to ya.

I couldnt really care what you guys think first of all you dont know me and because i dont think you should kill something unless you going to eat it thats my opinion and i dont need you following me around the site because your bored and trying to **** me off. Anyways took the kids out today had a good day didnt see any pigs but saw 6 moose 7 deer a coyote kids had a good time and ill keep trying. And if all you guys are on here to make crappy comments find something better to do. I am not going to make anymore post about opinions simply because all it does is start fights and ya im no better than anyone else ive had an infraction on the site and apoligize to anyone ive made poor comments towards. SORRY And if you dont want to share any info with me thats fine but you dont need to post it

Wolf Hide Gloves
 
Hi Guys,

What's wrong with shooting wolves and coyotes for fur or even just for fun?

My friend is a rancher and every year during calving season he's out with his rifle protecting the new born calves from coyotes and so when he asks me to come blast a few coyotes to help control the varmints I do it.

On the other hand, wolf hide gloves are much warmer than the synthetic stuff you buy. Wolves (and coyotes) are an underutilized resource that we have in abundance here in Alberta so why not take advantage of it?

Besides the experience of hunting wily coyote and the big bad wolf in the off season will help you get that big buck or bull in the fall.

Cheers,
Elk Hunter 55

Besides the obvious lack of knowledge in his posts (large cats indigneus to europe, coyotes native to china) the funniest statement was "my dad made me eat a squerrel I killed once as a kid, I sure wont do that again". I wonder what happened when he got caught "pulling the goalie"?:lol::lol:

lilsundance 03-12-2009 07:49 PM

ok Guys
 
csummer79 has learned his lesson about posting and trying to force his opinion on others. Do not belittle the man, he appologized. Some of you might remember Treeguy started out the same way with black rifles, and is now friends with some that opposed him and his Ideals. Give the man a chance.

Matt L. 03-12-2009 09:23 PM

I'm tryin' sundance, I'm tryin'! csummer79, you're attitude about eating what you kill is precisely why I told you to try to shoot a younger boar.(providing you can find one) Shoot a tough old one and you sure as hell won't be eatin' it lol!

The man appologized after being pushed. I would think from his comment about us 'going to **** our selves and **** off' that maybe he doesnt seem so sincere and not sure why he should have a 'chance' from any of us after his first incident.

Didnt seem like a very sincere apology to me as he outright called many of us 'poachers' and very casually said 'I apologized' in a thread, when truly I dont see a real 'apology' from him anywhere in his posts.

Sorry Lil, maybe I just am one of the few that get very offended when I am called a poacher several times on a hunting message board. I will give any man a chance once they start acting like they deserve one....

lilsundance 03-12-2009 11:38 PM

just asking for everyone to quit running the man down for making a mistake. If his apology was sincere he will make amends as a few others here have, if not then I can honestly say I tried to give the guy a break.
I also owe treeguy an apology for using him as an example. There are others from this board and the old board but for the life of me I can't remember their names. One who comes to mind from the old board wanted to purchase unregistered guns. He was down east, but for the life of me I can't remember his old board name. I know he is lurking here under a new name but is keeping quiet. lol

Let us know if you have any luck. As stated above, alot of folks around here are looking for info on hunting these things and there isn't much being released by those who have it.

Hope it works out for ya.

Ok boys, last Sunday on the way back from Safeway in Stony Plain, I saw three on the road that leads into the Doppler weather station, west of stony on hwy 16A. One larger pig and two little guys, not farm pigs either. I don't hunt them and don't care to. Not sure how you would access this property though.

I would love to meet you this week or the next week so you can show me where to go for these hogs.

Matt L. 09-14-2009 12:36 PM

Uh, do you guys realize how old this thread is?

kbtrucking 09-15-2009 09:54 PM

All talk with no pictures, help a guy out to take his kids hunting and to teach them about the outdoors. I know of pigs from G.P. to Red deer and they are everywhere. I think there is a bounty for ears in certain jurisdictions. This is a picture of a big boar taken pretty close to the said location. I recommend eating only the young ones, they taste more like beef than pork! Good luck!

muledeer1 09-17-2009 12:51 PM

Please let me know of any luck you have with these hogs and maybe a location. I have been wanting a taste of these beasts for a while. Also nice pic KB. That's a big pig. Any help you could give would be great.
