Sign in to contribute

Washington County sprawls across the piney woods of southwest Alabama, drained by the Tombigbee River in a landscape of longleaf pine, bottomland hardwoods, and pitcher-plant bogs. Whitetail deer are the primary quarry, but the county is equally celebrated for exceptional Eastern wild turkey hunting in its open pine forests. Several WMAs provide public access to this classic Deep South hunting county.

Terrain & elevation

Longleaf pine uplands; Tombigbee River bottomlands; Mobile-Tombigbee watershed drainages; wetland seeps and pitcher-plant bogs in low areas

Hunting pressure

Low to moderate; rural and sparsely populated county with limited hunting pressure outside WMA boundaries

Tags & permits

Alabama OTC archery, muzzleloader, and gun tags; statewide antler restriction applies

Species & seasons

Wild turkey hunting is a county standout with longleaf pine and native grass understory providing ideal spring gobbler habitat; deer populations solid

Highlights

Among southwest Alabama premier turkey counties due to longleaf pine restoration; Tombigbee River bottomlands produce quality whitetails with minimal competition
