Looking for an Arkansas hunting lease? Base Camp Leasing is here to help.
Arkansas is a very beautiful state with all manner of
recreation. There are numerous lakes, streams and rivers
throughout the state. The terrain varies from mountains
in the Northwest to flat prairie in the Southeast.
Hunting in the state of Arkansas is as diverse as is
the landscape.
In the Southeast portion is the Grand
Prairie and the farming area. Crops grown in this
part are rice, soybeans, wheat, corn, grain sorghum and
cotton. Included are other crops of lesser importance.
This Grand
Prairie area is mostly flat and includes Stuttgart,
AR and the Mississippi flyway for ducks. The Northwest
portion
of the state is made up of hills, mountains, and
timber. This area includes portions of the Boston Mountains
and the Ozark Mountains.
An Arkansas hunting lease can
offer some of the best duck hunting in the world. Stuttgart,
Arkansas, claims
to be “The Duck Hunting Capital of the World.” In
the past several years, more rice fields in this area
have be flooded and leased for hunting. There are several
large duck hunting clubs, with thousands of acres leased,
all up and down the rice producing area. Mack’s
Prairie Wings is located in Stuttgart and is the largest
supplier of Remington shotgun shells in the world.
It is also one of the premier suppliers of hunting
equipment.
Deer hunting is statewide, and each year
there are several
trophies taken. There are thousands of acres in Arkansas
that are owned by various timber and paper companies.
Most of these areas are leased for hunting and have
been for years.
There are also several large Wildlife Management
Areas in Arkansas that offer all manner of hunting to the
public. There are increasing numbers of turkey in the state,
and we are seeing developing interest in that game.
For the past several years, Geese have been flocking into
the rice producing areas by the thousands. There is
some small amount of goose hunting. Squirrel hunting is done
in most scopes of woods throughout the state. Hunters
also do rabbit and raccoon hunting, mostly with dogs.
Arkansas
offers diverse landscape and hunting. It’s
a great state for the perfect hunting lease.
