Gotta watch those Pascagoula WMA wardens! Let's just say, if they don't recognize your from the area, they will try to find any reason they possibly can to give you a ticket. Better have your act together when you go in there! Hell what am I sayin, even if you are from the area, with the exception of a few Vancleavers for some reason. Hmmm, almost like they are trying to deter people from there sometimes. Wonder if those Vancleave boys are paying them club dues if ya know what I mean?
Hog Hunting on the Pascagoula WMA, Learning the rules the hard way
Saturday AM my hunting buddy and I went to scout for hog sign at the P'goula WMA. We brought our guns in case we got lucky. On the way out, we got stopped by the rangers and Jackson County Sherrifs. Apparently, in the P'goula WMA, you can only hunt hogs during any other open season for game with weapons allowed during that season. Since deer season is over, our 30-06 and 308 rifles were not allowed and we got citations for that. From now until deer season in the fall, only small game weapons are allowed. Right now it is 22 rimfire or archery. It seems rather silly to hunt hogs with 22 rimfires, but the ranger said it is possible.
We will be going back, this time with 22LRs and a bow I have. Frankly, I think the bow, a hunting compound, is the best weapon...
If you have private land, you can use any waepon after March 1st....
Hope this is helpful.
