Manitoba Hog Huntin'

[sarcastech]

I know that there are areas in 'toba where there are wild hogs to be shot and I was hoping that one of you fine fellow hunters would know about exactly where to go looking for these creatures.

I have been told that they are around Russell, but lack specific information, would anyone out there be able to point me in the right direction?? Thanks!

i live at Russell and heard it was around Arbourg in the interlake. If around here, i would be eating a lot of wild pork.

I haven't heard of them lately, there were some released way back during the big flood and Conservation said light 'em up, but unless something has changed I believe the population was effectively reduced (but hunters at the request of Conservation, at that). Did I miss something?

If there is any hog hunting in Manitoba its the best kept secret in Manitoba, You always hear about it but its always a few hours away in a vague general area

The areas I once knew that were plagued with these beasts (Scanteberry, Patricia Beach, East Selkirk) have been wild boar cleansed about a decade ago.

I would look for "escapees" in the South East area using Stienbach as the North West corner. Worked for me back in 2000.

There was one in Headingley last summer, but you can't shoot them there. Best of luck to you in finding them. I think you'd have to do your research and get very lucky. Someone will shoot one, but its more likely it will be a guy that discovers one on his own land.

You'd probably have a better chance of shooting a Sasquatch in Manitoba! I have a German friend who is hell bent on shooting a hog. The closet he has come is spotting "hog prints and poop!"
