Day or night pig hunts?

[gregdemars]

When is it better to hunt pigs? Day or night? Is Texas the only state that allows night hunting? Do most outfitters offer the option? Is it fair to say that the bigger boars will be out night? Are pigs nocturnal naturally?

I  have  seen  pigs  all  hours  of  the  day  depending  if  summer  or  winter   its  hard  to  beat  a  water  hole  during  the  summer  heat   during  the  day   but  during  the  winter  i  am  seeing  more  pigs   come  out  betwenn  6=9 pm     this  is  on  my lease   the  biggest  boars  i  have  killed  are  at  night  sows  and  shoats  have  generally  been   taken  as  soon  as  the  feeders  go  off   but  the  big  ones  are  pretty  leary

it depends on when they are moving, which seems to depend on the weather a bit.  I have that in E. Tx , right around the time deer season ends, the hogs begin to move more during daylight hours.  I think it has a bit to do with the lack of food.  Most acorns and such are pretty much gone by then and the hogs, like other animals are traveling more in search of food.
