Title: Kentucky hogs?
Post by: dub on March 16, 2012, 04:25:20 pm
I may be looking to move to Kentucky near Louisville. The first thing I look at is hog hunting because I am not moving anywhere I can't catch pigs. But the law talks about some part of the state some hunter released pigs so they don't let anyone hunt there. But I have no idea where that is. So I am hoping someone lives up there that is on here. If I live near Louisville are there hogs and can i catch them?

If you find that they have hogs in KY or near by areas that you can hunt, I would ask what type of dogs are successfull.  I would think the answer would be Blueticks or Plotts.

Western ky. Is what I've heard. Have not been there myself but have been told it's much better than anywhere North of it. Ft.Cambell area supposed to have a few. If your used to gettin on hogs you won't like Ky. Or ohio or Wv. Very spotty hard to find huntable sign.

So if I do move I will need a dog trailer and keep coming back to Texas so the dogs can have their fun too. It seems there is a lot for me to hunt. But I am not going for sure. If I do I could a hog removal service so I get called to where the hogs are ;D

Well, if u get up there and no pigs to work, you welcome to come down to Alabama and hunt some weekends. I'm picking up a few places and trying to get my lil pack on track. You 'd be welcome anytime we rolled out.

Hey Dub I lived in Kentucky most of my life. Thats before I left with the Army. There a few places to hunt hogs in KY but not many. And it's a few hours from Louisville to any of those places. So if you love the dogs and the hog hunting might want to consider elsewhere. I love the dogs so much that while I was there I bought walkers and coon hunted 7 nights a week. Plenty of that there!
