The
press release for the Fort Worth District Lake Grapevine hunting states that hogs can be hunted with archery or shotgun. The release says restricted to #3 shot or smaller. It does not say #3 buck - is it a mistake? Anyone ever hunt a hog with #3 birdshot?
I have a few questions about hunting public land on Grapevine.
1. Can you set up blinds?
2. Can you feed or set up feeders for pigs and deer?
3. If you have 1 of the 800 general hunting permits, does that you can only kill 1 of the animals a general hunting permit covers? Or does it mean they are issuing 800 permits and you can kill as many animals as the law allows?
4. Is there a decent number of hogs, deer, turkey to actually hunt on these public lands, or are they all really spooked because they have so many people firing at the hip at them?
I have never hunted public land and with it so hard to find a lease, looks like i may be going the public land route. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
