Texas Hog Hunting Outfitters
Blackbird Ranch is a premier Texas outfitter offering wild hog hunts February 1 through the end of May. We offer daylight and nighttime boar hunts on over 1,000 prime acres in Fairfield, Texas—conveniently located only 70 minutes from Dallas, and just two hours and 20 minutes north of Houston. We are surrounded by thousands of acres of game-rich land, which keeps us teeming with wildlife. Our two large lakes total about 100 acres, with streams and creeks that keep large populations of hog on our property. The lakes are stocked with world-class record-size Florida bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish for your fishing pleasure, so don’t forget your fishing gear. Our 2,000-square-foot lodge, perched over one of the lakes, is furnished with all the comforts of home—the perfect family-friendly private group and corporate outing destination.
Wild Boar Hunting in Texas
Our wild boar hunting property in Texas is covered in large oak, elm, cypress, food plots, and feeders. You will hunt from box stands set up over feeders, food plots, and some long shooting lanes (senderos) that produce hog after hog. Several water sources throughout the ranch keep our hog population at peak heights. We have two large lakes, one around 65 acres and the other 35 acres. Both are stocked with record-size trophy bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish—so be sure to bring along your fishing tackle. Our largest trophy wild hogs weigh in at 400 pounds or slightly more and make for beautiful trophy shoulder mounts.
With most of our boar hunt packages, you will check in around noon on any given day and be in the stand for an afternoon or evening hunt. Mornings will start well before first light and run until about 10 a.m., when we will pick you up and retrieve any downed game. We will bring you back to the lodge for breakfast while we process any harvested game. You will return to the stand in the afternoon and hunt boar until dark. If your group would like to hunt a little after dark, you can discuss this with your guide upon arrival. This cycle repeats for the duration of your wild boar hunt, with a noon departure on the last day.
The Blackbird Ranch outfitter also provides hog hunting at night on specific dates throughout the year. You can sit over open pastures with feeders to go after the largest of hogs. All feeders have automatic lights attached for your convenience and success. This is for sure a trophy boar hunt, and you can bring your own lights and thermal scope, or we can provide night-vision and other equipment as needed for a successful hog hunt.
Texas Hog Hunting Lodge
The 2,000-square-foot Blackbird Ranch hog hunting lodge overlooks a 35-acre lake stocked with world-class Florida trophy bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish. You can relax during your downtime, or bring fishing poles and tackle for some midday tight-line action. We are more than happy to prepare anything you catch for dinner. Our pricing does not include meals, but we have all the modern conveniences for you to prepare them, including a full kitchen and grill. Fresh coffee will be available at breakfast along with Danish or donuts, toast, cereals, and juice. Other meals are not included but can be provided for an additional price based on your group’s needs—please call for details and menu options.
