Phillips County anchors the Arkansas Delta along the Mississippi River, offering some of the finest flooded-timber waterfowl hunting in the entire Mississippi Flyway. Bottomland hardwoods, oxbow lakes, and vast rice and soybean fields define the flat terrain while white-tailed deer thrive in the river-bottom timber. Serious duck hunters from across the country book club blinds here each season.

Terrain & elevation

Flat Mississippi River Delta alluvial plain with oxbow lakes, bayous, flooded hardwood timber, and agricultural fields growing rice, soybeans, and corn

Hunting pressure

High for waterfowl given the legendary reputation; moderate for deer in river-bottom hardwoods and field edges

Tags & permits

Over-the-counter archery and firearms license; standard statewide antler restrictions in effect

Species & seasons

Mallards, wood ducks, and teal dominate the flooded-timber shoots; Canada geese feed in agricultural fields; wild turkey occupy hardwood ridge pockets; deer hunting plays second fiddle to waterfowl for most visitors

Highlights

Helena-West Helena is iconic in the Mississippi Flyway duck hunting world; flooded-timber club operations rival Stuttgart in prestige and harvest numbers
