This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Pig Problem and Guide Hank (Luke) was a perfect example of why persistence matters in Hog Hunting.
The night started with early promise when Hogs were spotted on the very first field. By the time the group geared up and moved into position, the Pigs had already slipped away — a common tease that experienced hunters know all too well.
As the night went on, fog rolled in, making scanning and travel more challenging. Several fields were checked through the early morning hours with no activity, testing patience and focus. But rather than calling it early, Hank kept pushing and stayed alert for one more opportunity.
That decision paid off.
While driving past another field near the road, Hank spotted a Large Sounder of Wild Hogs moving through the area. Acting quickly, he circled around, positioned the group behind the field, and led a quiet approach from the downwind side.
The stalk came together perfectly. The group slipped in behind the sounder and made the most of the opportunity, resulting in five hogs successfully recovered — a strong finish to a night that demanded patience and persistence.
Fog, long hours, and steady effort all led to a memorable ending. Another successful Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt in the books with Pig Problem Inc and Guide Hank (Luke).
