00 Highway 70 Biscoe, AR 72017

Properties along the Cache River have been very few and far between for many years and this offering is not a random piece that will leave you wondering if mallards will come through the trees the way you have always dreamed. This 489.48 surveyed acre tract is located off of Highway 70 just West of Brinkley in the absolute center of the Arkansas waterfowl flyway. There is a 50' easement that leads you to a gravel parking lot at the NW corner where you can launch a boat using the existing gravel launch and boat ditch or take off on a side by side utilizing the interior road system. It is already setup with 3 wells (2 electric and 1 turbine) along with all the infrastucture needed to flood the woods and fields.

It is not often that I have been able to hunt the tracts I am selling, but this is one very fortunate case where I know how good the hunting is because I have lived "the good ol days" on this property in years past. I will never forget the first time I was on it and flushed a huge raft of mallards on the southern end of the timber thinking "well that was cool, but there they all went" just for the same thing to happen two more times on the same visit. We were riding a UTV through the woods watching them circle back and then fade off working back to the South as we unknowingly continued on to the other two rafts towards the North.

One very unique thing about this tract is ideal terrain. While you may not be able to flood boundary to boundary by pump, the benefits are two-fold. Number one, the slight ridges provide just enough elevation where red oak timber that produces acorns a duck can actually feed on thrive. The number of willow oaks, pin oaks, and other red oaks that are on the ridges throughout the property is impressive. That component is not often seen this day in time where so many oak flats have converted to overcup oak which provide cover, loafing habitat and some invertebrates, but no useable mast production. However, when the Cache gets high and out of its' bank these ridges go under providing fresh food for ducks not only in the form of acorns but also fresh access to aquatic invertebrates. The elevation changes in the field system provide similar benefits where you can plant food at different elevations so the ducks have fresh habitat as the river level changes. Another unique feature that can't be overlooked is the fact that the fields are strategically on two sides of the timber. The second benefit of the small elevation change is having a place to stand when the river is high without a requirement to build multiple blinds because the water is too deep to stand. While a high water blind or two may not be a terrible idea for extreme conditions or taking kids, you will be able to stand by a tree for many more days than if the tract were all a low flat. When the Brasfield gauge is around 25.5 almost the entire tract is flooded. The only observed dry portion at that level is the very North end of the field system which would make an excellent lodge site and allow you to overlook your waterfowl food plots in the evenings as you enjoy dinner and a fire. Electricity is already at the the parking area to service the two electric wells so getting it to this area of the property for a lodge would only be a short run. Or you could simply build at the parking lot where the electric is already accessible, if a lodge is a requirement for you.
