McDougal, AR 72441(Clay County)

The property consists of 443.0 +/- acres and is located in the Delta Region of Northeast Arkansas, in Clay County, near the community of McDougal. The surrounding area is predominantly farmed for rice and renowned for its consistent and excellent duck hunting. The Black River is positioned just northwest of the property and is one of Arkansas' most notable mallard duck flyways. There is significant state-owned waterfowl habitat within proximity, which typically holds thousands of ducks during the autumn and winter seasons.

The timber is impounded bottomland hardwoods, also known as a green-tree reservoir (GTR). The GTR is explicitly designed for duck hunting and has a reliable water source for annual flooding. A 10-inch electric- turbine well is connected to an underground pipe system, which leads to four risers within the GTR. There are two zero-grade duck food plots centrally located within the woods with risers for irrigating duck food in the summer and keeping water thawed in winter.

A zero-grade field historically planted in rice is located outside of the GTR, and serves as a waterfowl rest area. The woods have four shooting holes, two of which have risers for keeping the water thawed during periods of freezing temperatures. Two of the shooting holes in the woods have duck blinds, and there is a duck blind positioned in one of the food plots. The GTR is designed for boat access throughout, beginning from a boat shed located near the cabin.

The property has is a 30 +/- acre fishing reservoir full of lunker largemouth bass, as well as crappie and bream. The reservoir has a gravel boat ramp, dock, and fish feeders. The land has a history of holding quality whitetail deer, with trophy bucks harvested from time to time. Dove hunting is also available on a 5 +/- acre field, which is well suited for growing sunflowers.

Access to the property is from Arkansas State Highway 62 via a private, all-weather, gated road ending at a new, fully-furnished, 1,500 square-foot cabin. The cabin is fitting with hardwood floors, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living area, a kitchen, a utility room, and a boot room. Just steps away from the camp house are access to a steel container for equipment storage, the GTR boat shed, and the reservoir boat dock. The electric well and reservoir boat ramp are near the cabin, and the grounds are adequate for additional development if desired.

This is a rare opportunity for the waterfowl and conservation enthusiast to procure high-grade, turn-key, legacy property.
