0 Tbd Misty Creek Rd Port Barre, LA 70577

Looking for your own duck hunting oasis, this tract is loaded with potential. Located between large tracts of rice and agriculture fields and the Atchafalaya River, it sits in the heart of the Basin. This area is well known for holding large concentrations of waterfowl species. With the rice fields and flooded timber this is a winter haven for Wood Duck, Teal, Mallards, Grays and many other varieties of waterfowl. Misty Creek Rd. is your access along the north side of the Bayou Courtableau Outlet Channel (Grimmett Canal) that is on a ridge which has development opportunities.

With water from Bayou Courtableau and the Grimmett Canal flooding the low areas during low water will insure good hunting through the season. A portion of this tract also gets back water from Henderson Lake during high water events that adds to the attractiveness for waterfowl.
