Sign in to contribute

Marshall County lies between Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley in far western Kentucky, sharing the dual-lake peninsula character of neighboring Lyon County but with more agricultural ground anchoring the southern portion. Land Between the Lakes NRA covers the northern end while productive farmland in the county interior supports solid deer populations. The county position on the Mississippi Flyway between two major lakes makes Marshall one of the most productive waterfowl destinations in western Kentucky.

Terrain & elevation

Low-lying terrain between Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley; forested wetlands, agricultural fields, and lake shoreline; generally flatter than northern Lyon County with more open agricultural ground to the south

Hunting pressure

moderate - LBL access draws traffic but southern agricultural sections are lightly pressured by destination hunters

Tags & permits

OTC archery, crossbow, and firearms tags; no statewide antler restrictions

Species & seasons

Waterfowl hunting is excellent given the county position between two major lakes on the Mississippi Flyway; deer populations are solid in the agricultural interior and lake-edge timber

Highlights

Premier western Kentucky waterfowl county flanked by Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley; deer hunting in agricultural bottom ground anchored by Land Between the Lakes public land to the north
