Sign in to contribute

St. Helena Parish occupies the rolling longleaf and loblolly pine hills of the Florida Parishes in southeastern Louisiana, a landscape of creek bottoms, hardwood drains, and timber company lands. White-tailed deer and wild turkey thrive in this lightly populated and relatively lightly hunted corner of the state. The absence of major public-land complexes keeps the hunting culture private-lease oriented but the terrain produces quality animals.

Terrain & elevation

Rolling longleaf and loblolly pine uplands with creek drainages, hardwood-lined stream bottoms, and some open savanna restoration sites; moderate relief by Louisiana standards

Hunting pressure

Low to moderate -- sparse human population and a private-lease culture keep public hunting pressure minimal throughout the season

Tags & permits

Louisiana OTC tags; no antler restrictions

Species & seasons

Wild turkey hunting in the pine-hardwood uplands is a seasonal highlight; squirrel and small game hunting in creek bottoms

Highlights

One of the quieter and more traditional hunting parishes in the Florida Parishes corridor; pine timber terrain produces quality deer with good genetics and light hunting pressure
