I have a good friend who lives in Centerville, Mo. thattold me a few weeks ago the hogs are literally taking over all of his deer hunting spots. He claiming that where the hogs move in,the deer move on and he's pretty perturbed about the situation. Ialso had heard their numbers where very much on the decline by all the locals working themover but I trust this fella's word to theletter.

The area ofparticular interest would have to be south of 32 hwy.,west of 21 hwy., north of 72 hwy. and east of KK hwy. or in other words all of the upper reaches of both the west and middle forks of Black river.

Hope this helps you out, YFIS.
