Sign in to contribute

Harrison County in the East Texas Piney Woods is defined by dense timber, piney ridges, and the legendary Caddo Lake system — a vast cypress swamp and bayou network straddling the Louisiana border that ranks among the finest waterfowl hunting destinations in the South. White-tailed deer hunting is productive throughout the county timber and agricultural edges, and Caddo Lake State Park and WMA provide genuine public-land opportunity. The combination of quality deer hunting and exceptional waterfowl access makes Harrison County one of the more well-rounded East Texas destinations.

Terrain & elevation

Loblolly and shortleaf pine uplands broken by hardwood creek bottoms; Caddo Lake and associated bayous form extensive cypress swamp wetlands in the northeast

Species & seasons
