Good now, but what a grand duck and goose hunting property this will be in 2017 and beyond. The property will consist of 19 ponds spread over 177 acres and 3/4 of a mile long. Ponds and dike work are 2/3rds complete and will be finished in 2016. This is without a doubt going to be one of the premier duck and goose hunting properties in the area. The property was only one of 16 applications for WRP consideration that was accepted for development solely because of premier location. Millet, forbs and grasses slated to be planted in spring of 2017. Home (future lodge) sits high on a hill overlooking the entire hunting property with a really spectacular view of the countryside. The day I visited the property there were approximately 90 Blue Wing and 10 Gadwalls and a few local geese on the existing ponds. As you can see from the accompanying pictures there was no cover available but the prope...

The day I visited the property there were approximately 90 Blue Wing and 10 Gadwalls and a few local geese on the existing ponds. As you can see from the accompanying pictures there was no cover available but the property still attracted birds. The property sits square between Fountain Grove and Truman Reservoir, both of which are renown for fantastic waterfowl hunting. This property also offers great deer and turkey hunting as you have plenty of mature timber along the Lamine River frontage. The owner has not allowed hunting since 2010. The grandson has picked up sheds in the 130/150 class from the property and the owner says he sees deer and turkeys almost every day. A good income can be produced from the certified organic acreage. Organic soybeans are currently selling around $25.00 per bu. For those that are seriously looking for a sizable property with great hunting, take a close look at this offering. Not many properties offer combined waterfowl, deer, and turkey hunting all wrapped up in a single location.
