About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedArkansas County sits in the heart of the Arkansas Grand Prairie, a nationally renowned duck hunting destination and one of the top counties in the state for both waterfowl and white-tailed deer. The county encompasses much of Bayou Meto Wildlife Management Area, thousands of acres of flooded rice fields, and bottomland hardwoods along the Arkansas River that hold large deer populations.
Flat Grand Prairie with flooded rice fields, bottomland hardwoods, and cypress sloughs along the Arkansas River — classic delta topography at low elevation
high
Arkansas uses a statewide over-the-counter system for antlered deer with a season bag limit; antlerless deer require either an OTC antlerless tag or a quota permit depending on zone
Exceptional duck hunting rivaling Stuttgart; deer are plentiful in the hardwood bottoms with good genetics from limited pressure in WMA interiors; turkey hunting is moderate
Hunt the flooded timber edges on Bayou Meto WMA for both big deer moving at dawn and the best duck opportunity in the state
