About this unit
Sign in to contributeSan Augustine County is classic deep East Texas Piney Woods where portions of Angelina National Forest provide a major block of public hunting land within a pine-hardwood landscape rich in white-tailed deer and Rio Grande turkey. Sam Rayburn Reservoir's upper arms border the county and add seasonal waterfowl hunting to the mix. This is a county where public land hunters have genuine opportunity alongside the dominant private timber culture.
Heavily forested piney woods with loblolly and shortleaf pine uplands; creek and river bottoms hold mixed hardwood including white oak, sweetgum, and magnolia; Sam Rayburn Reservoir backwaters create significant wetland habitat on the county fringe
Angelina National Forest provides extensive public hunting within the county; Sam Rayburn Reservoir shoreline has public access points; timber company holdings supplement public land options for fee hunting
Moderate; public land draws hunters from across the region but extensive forest cover absorbs pressure effectively
East Texas antler restrictions apply; one unblemished side with 3 or more points or 13-inch or greater spread
Rio Grande turkey in national forest hardwood and pine edges; wood duck and waterfowl hunting in Sam Rayburn coves and creek backwaters; squirrel hunting in hardwood bottoms; feral hogs widespread
Angelina National Forest public deer and turkey hunting; Sam Rayburn Reservoir waterfowl hunting in flooded timber backwaters
