Texas public land hunting
For those like me without their own land or a lease to hunt,
let's talk about public land hunting. Specifics about particular
areas we have experience with preferably.
Myself, I've hunted Caddo Nat. Grasslands in Fannin county
the last 2 deerseasons. It's a fairly high use area, especially early
season and weekends, but later and during the week it's not too
crowded. 2lakes, quite a fewtanks and a couple of creeks
would seem to provide good water source. Despite it's name
there's a good amount of forested bottom lands.
Plenty of campsites,alot of primitive though there are spots
with tables and toilets available. Lake traffic seems low
and I'm told the fishing is good, I plan on finding out for myself soon.
I've not killed a deer here yet though I've seen a few during off
season and usually find sign while I'm out so I'm not yet discouraged.
I've also found hog wallows, always see squirrels and alot of people
duck hunt on the lakes. It is probable I just need more experience
and patience to take a deer, so I'll keep trying until I find another
option. And I am looking.
Anyone else hunt public land in Texas. I'd like to hear about it.
