PRICE REDUCED! Located along the banks of the Lamoine River on the Brown County and Schuyler County line is this hidden gem. Whether you’re a diehard deer hunter or an avid waterfowl hunter, this property has a little bit of everything to offer. There is a new 5-acre bean plot planted on the southwest corner of the property that is going to be a dynamite late-season plot with bedding area to the north and south of the plot and easy access to a box blind location overlooking the plot. An internal trail allows access to all along the east and north sides of the property for easy stand access. Head down the trail on the south end of the property across the dam, where there is an inline water control structure for controlling water levels in the main impoundment. There are right around 20 acres that can be flooded on an average year, and you can pull the water down using the control structure to plant corn, millet, or any other food plots you desire for waterfowl or deer and flood for fall hunts. There is also a second water control structure on the east side for additional water control. These impoundments located along the Lamoine River can offer great duck and goose hunting during the fall. Not only can the waterfowl hunting be action-packed, but the deer hunting on this property also heats up, especially during the rut. Being located along the Lamoine River serves as a natural funnel for deer up and down the river. You can access the property using the established trails, or you could drop a small boat upriver a mile and float down the river entirely undetected for some great internal stand locations. During the early and mid-season, this farm is essentially a big bedding area with thick cover throughout much of the farm. The river serves as a travel corridor but do not underestimate the number of deer that cross back and forth from side to side, especially during the rut. Farms like this are notorious for mature bucks pushing hot does into these thick bottoms. This farm has a lot of upside potential and will get better and better with time with the ever-changing habitat and the addition of the new food plot. If you are in the market for a quality waterfowl or deer hunting farm in the heart of the Midwest, give the listing land specialist a call today for more information or to schedule a private showing.
