Default Hogs at night Florida?

I havn't read anything that makes me think you can hunt hogs at night in Central Florida area. We are hunting land by SR27 & SR192. Can anyone give me details on this. If this is true We see hogs all the time at night and would get a chance at one of the monsters we see at night.

As long as you are 300ft from any county or state rd and are not trespassing on private property or WMA!

I'm not saying you won't shoot any, but it's pretty hard to hunt them at night without dogs!

Sure you can, but not a flash light. You need a light with some 200,000 candle power. Big, you're not hunting rabbits and it can get pretty hairy if aBoss Hog turns on you in the dark and I would'nt go alone either!

And hope you can climb trees, because as Rebel Hog said, they will sometimes turn on you. dog1
