This hunting lease is leased and not available.
A fantastic hunting farm in Fayette County, Illinois is now being offered for lease. the trail camera photos speak volumes about the opportunity this property provides. This is a well-set-up farm with all the ingredients needed to harvest a mature Illinois buck. The farm features a diverse mix of CRP, row crops, timber, and year round water, all of which are key during the rut. On one side of the property are 14 acres of thick CRP mixed with canary grass, briars, and young trees, which provides ideal bedding cover. The northwest portion of the farm includes an additional 5 acres of canary grass. All crop fields are surrounded by 20-yard CRP buffer strips, creating excellent edge habitat and travel routes. During my visit, I observed a tremendous amount of deer sign throughout the property. A timber harvest completed several years ago has only improved the habitat and cover. The aerial map clearly shows multiple natural funnels that set up extremely well for hunting. Having hunted Fayette County myself, I know firsthand the caliber of bucks that call this area home, and this farm has the layout and history to be a top-notch lease.
