NC is great for bear hunting. I have killed 3 in the past 4 years. I would recommend Martin, Bertie, Pasquotank,Tyrell counties. This year I got a 450 lb, my biggest yet. I just returned this weekend from a hog hunt in SC at Cinnamon Ridge. Didn't even see a hog, but god the deer and turkey there were incredible. Anyone know of an area in NC I can find Hogs (Feral)? I have heard there are starting to be some in the uwharrie National forest.
