Default Carrying a Rifle

Do any of you know what the penalty or fine is for having a rifle when bow hunting? I don't do this, but yesterday I saw a video clip of someone in Louisiana on their deer stand on opening day of bow season, with a crossbow, and a 30-30 rifle. The explanation for the rifle was in case of hogs. Maybe the guy thinks that's ok, but I doubt the law would see it that way. Anyway, I was just curious. I'm pretty sure the only legal firearm to carry while bow hunting is a .22 handgun with rat shot, for protection against snakes. Have a good one guys. Thanks in advance.
