About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedFannin County sits in Northeast Texas along the Red River, blending Post Oak Savannah uplands with wooded river bottom habitat that supports strong whitetail and turkey populations. The county's proximity to the Red River provides quality waterfowl hunting during migration, with ducks and geese funneling through the river corridor and impoundments.

Gently rolling Post Oak Savannah with sandy soils, creek drainages flowing to the Red River, and agricultural fields interspersed with hardwood and pine timber.
Moderate; rural character preserved despite proximity to the Sherman-Denison metropolitan area to the west along the Red River corridor.
OTC tags; Northeast Texas antler restrictions apply requiring at least one unbranched antler or 13-inch inside spread.
Rio Grande turkey are common in wooded areas throughout the county. Red River corridor waterfowl migration can be excellent for ducks and Canada geese in fall.
