About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedGrant Parish is defined by the Kisatchie National Forest, which covers a substantial portion of the parish and delivers the finest block of accessible public hunting land in central Louisiana. The terrain runs to rolling sand hills, longleaf pine savannas, and creek-bottom hardwoods centered on Saline Bayou and the Dugdemona River. Deer and turkey are the primary targets, and the combination of public acreage and genuine pine-hills topography gives Grant a character unlike the flat agricultural parishes to the east.
Rolling to hilly sand hills and longleaf pine savannas with creek-bottom hardwood drainages along Saline Bayou and the Dugdemona River; the Kisatchie Hills unit provides some of the most varied topography in Louisiana; sandy soils support native longleaf restoration.
Low to moderate — the large block of national forest distributes pressure well; backcountry stands away from forest roads see relatively light hunting even during gun season.
OTC statewide license with up to 6 deer per season and no more than 3 bucks; national forest and WMA-specific regulations may differ — confirm LDWF and Forest Service rules.
Wild turkey populations benefit from ongoing longleaf pine restoration in Kisatchie; feral hogs are present and huntable year-round on national forest land; squirrel and rabbit hunting productive in the creek-bottom hardwoods.
Kisatchie National Forest provides rare walk-in public land opportunity virtually unknown in Louisiana; Saline Bayou National Scenic River corridor offers remote backcountry hunting in the most rugged terrain in central Louisiana.
