Page looks nice Cajun.

Good Haul fellas y'all stacked em up!

Happy Thanksgiving y'all

Nlahunter I've liked the looks of Buck since you got him looks like he's turned into a nice dog.

Yep ol Jugs a fine lookin animal

Haha Muddy I don't think 2 fellas on a forum sayin he sounds like a decent dog is legend status.He'll prolly end up like me old, fat and a legend in his own mind lol.

Cajun This is Stanky he is almost ready to go and looks more like his Daddy Hambone than Hambone himself maybe he'll act the same too.

Cajun we can't all have a yard full of greats like yourself gotta just enjoy a lil taste of it haha.I'm hanging on to these dogs by a thread and trying hard to keep some around for the future.

T-dog I am gonna be having a talk with ol Hambone about all this Texas talk.

It's been a dang monsoon down here it just never stops raining lately.Went and made a hunt in the rain last night Hambone Rigged twice and he and Copper Ran a couple hogs forever through the Marsh but had to catch them off because of a deep gator canal.Casted them into a big head and Copper trailed up a group of pigs they went round and round killing pigs for a while until I called em out.Hambone finally rigged a gooden and they got him in some deep bottomless marsh dogs and hog were struggling to stay above water so we dispatched him from the boat.Hambone winded one  more time on a 1200 acre island and they went round and round before he finally slipped by me and swam the River caught up Hambone and called it a night at 5:30am.

Muddy I remember when you caught ol 3 legs, Red and Jessie were dang good dogs.

BA-IV I have heard that Boogie dog name in several of y'all's dogs on here y'all still have dogs that go back to him? Cobb sure was a good looking sucker dogs like that don't come round every day.

T-dog whatever happened to old Clyde is he in any of your dogs these days?He sounds like a good one.

Cajun I remember that story that's some dang impressive cold trailing.

I have been around some really cold nosed hounds that my old buddy used to have he ran bear and hogs with his dogs were white cloud walkers and old smokey Blueticks I believe.They had the best noses I've ever been around but weren't very good at getting one stopped to bay imo they definitely weren't track drifters.I was hunting a quota hunt one time and he was coming later in the day he asked me to mark a few good tracks and scrub em out.So on the way in at 5am I found three good tracks and scrubbed em out.I went on and caught 6 or so hogs with my cur dogs and stopped for lunch.He got there at lunchtime and we headed to the tracks I marked and I be danged them dogs rigged all three tracks from the box we put one on each track and they all three jumped the hogs but we didn't end up catching any of the three.One of the dogs collars broke and he didn't get her back for a week the other two hogs ended up swimming the River and we caught them off.I ended up with one of them Bluetick gyps but she had a really small head and slipped her collar in the pen and ate it and ended up dieing.

Bored and wanted to start a topic that isn't talked about very much.

What do y'all consider cold trailing?

The other morning Hambone did some trailing that put a smile on my face.It may have been nothing special but to me it was impressive for a ol swamp cur.
We had a hurricane headed for us for the second time in a week so I called work off at 6am and my son in law says he has a boar hog on camera across the street at midnight.So I wake up Rowdy load up Hambone and Copper we head to the camera and about a mile before we get there we find a good track in the road where a single hog had been feeding on acorns in the Rd. The track looked about the size of the one on camera and I said I bet this is him and he came this way after he hit the camera.So I figured this was the fresher track it was just about 7am.Turned Hambone and Copper out and they smelled it.Mind you we're in one of our wettest years in history and the woods and swamp across the street are deep.So they ground on it for awhile and I be danged they were slowly working towards the camera I had it backwards.They got to the camera at 7:50 something 7.5 hrs since he was there.From there they trailed a half mile through a Cypress swamp thats 2-3ft deep and got to a big mosquito canal Copper got hung up at the canal but Hambone crossed it from there he went another half mile through hell and bayed him in the bed at 9am it was a grind 2+ miles and 2hrs from start to finish but I was damn sure proud.I know it probably ain't nothing special but it put a smile on my face.
I really enjoy hearing stories about trailing so let's hear some y'all.

Thanks y'all hopefully Muddy and I can figure this thing out.
Cajun that Yella gyp is built dang nice.
T-dog how you like the A.B.'s? The two you got are nice looking dogs.

This is Bubba he's another one I Bred who my son in law owns he's Dozer's brother and has that cool as ice demeanor just like his sister Xena and that his Momma and Daddy had he's probably the better option to do a brother sister breeding to try and bring out that behavior totally calm after hogs Caught and listens extremely well.He's 75lbs and extremely athletic straight ear and a very hard mouth he doesn't have the experience Dozer has but is definitely a natural.

Nice hog there Muddy, if I had to guess I'd bet there was a lil beer drinking going on with that hunt.

Dozer is my only catchdog at the moment he is incredibly athletic, fast and hasn't missed one yet.He has zero dog aggression and is super friendly. His downfalls are he is wound extremely tight and is a handful.His Daddy and Momma were as laid back as you could ask for and so are all his brothers and sisters that are still alive. It's ashamed his Daddy ain't around no more because he seemed to produce some goodens.We recently Bred Dozer to Muddy's Female hopefully they produce some nice dogs he posted a picture of the pups.I am also considering doing a Brother Sister breeding with him and my buddies gyp Xena she's a really nice catchdog who's as cool as ice zero fussing and could be used off lead for sure She's from the same exact breeding as Dozer just the next litter.Im hoping to be able to get something like her and their Daddy from it.

Nice hog Scotty that louisiana swamp looks just like home.

Nice Barr Hog Mike sounds like them dogs are tuned up.

Damn say it ain't so T-dog. I could see that from the old lady or even the kids but not Hambone.That hurts.

T-dog when I retire it'll be from working like a dog not dog hunting. I appreciate it y'all.
