For the amount of trips I made to PRWMA this 2015-2016 hunting season the amount of hogs I took was embarrassingly low. I didn't see the amount of trails in 15-16 that I saw in 14-15 and chalked that up to the lack of early freezes (plenty of vegetation = hogs not moving a lot at night or certainly not moving a lot during the day). I saw plenty of droppings and rooting signs, but I didn't see the large superhighways of trails this year that I saw last year. I took a few hogs, I hit one or two that I could not locate, and I saw a half dozen that I couldn't get a shot on, but by and by I saw three times as many hogs in 14-15 that I saw in 15-16.
This was only my third hunting season so I'm still learning.
I'm wondering if you guys saw the same thing (significantly fewer daytime hogs this year) and what you think the cause is.
