Welcome to the BIG BLACK RIVER SWAMP BOTTOM IN HOLMES COUNTY! If you like hunting deer in places that most hunters won't go, this is your tract. This bottomland property is a timbered thicket cut up by meandering sloughs ,which is great for giving deer places to hide to achieve maturity. Is it wet? Yes, most swamps are. Does it flood when the Big Black River gets out of its banks? Yes, most all Big Black River bottomland does. Now, the positives. This property is right at -1/4 mile from the river, meaning you will have deer running this bottom during the rut from miles away looking for hot does. This tract is accessed right off Highway 14 by a woods road that will take you to the southwest corner. You will find two wildlife plots along the way with sporadic pockets of hardwood timber. These acorn producing pockets are surrounded by swamp thickets ,which is a deadly recipe for harvesting mature deer in the Big Black River Bottom. This tract was torn up with deer signs on the initial inspection in late October 2020. As stated, there are two sloughs running through it , creating travel corridors and duck hunting opportunities. I have personally jumped ducks off the sloughs (mainly woodies), so you may be able to have a couple of successful late season hunts. If you have been looking for a true Big Black Swamp Bottom Tract, bring your boots ,and let's take a tour today.
