Rice and soybean fields are prevalent. As any duck hunter knows, rice fields are waterfowl magnets. Farming operations are managed to achieve maximum yields for both grain and the overwintering of waterfowl. These fields and bordering forests also attract the elusive whitetail deer. Duck hunting is from 1 of 22 heated pits (seat 4 people per pit). The guide puts out decoys and calls the birds, while a well-trained retriever gets them. Waders are not needed. For goose hunting, transportation to and from the field, rags, parkas, retriever and guide are provided. Over 100 year’s combined duck hunting experience.

Tallahatchie Hunts offers guided duck and deer hunting on private lands in Tallahatchie County Mississippi. There are several public and private game preserves that serve as resting areas that help us maintain large populations of waterfowl throughout the winter months.

The Tallahatchie, Coldwater, and Yocona Rivers all come together in Tallahatchie County and drain the northwest Mississippi reservoirs of Sardis, Enid, and Arkabutla. Backwater flooding is common during the winter months on these Mississippi Delta lands and most of our hunting is done on acreage adjoining these rivers.

The deer population of our county has exploded since 1991. There are many large whitetails roaming in the field and the timber. Every year, record-book bucks are harvested here.

One of the most experienced guides in the Mississippi Delta, Mike “Catfish” Flautt has been hunting this area for over fifty years. Season after season, Catfish’s clients can attest to his almost perfect success rate, as he does not hunt the heated pit blinds of deserted fields, but hunts “where the ducks are” everyday of the season, no matter what the weather brings.

For over a century now, Beaver Dam Lake and the area surrounding it have been regarded as a premiere waterfowl destination in North Mississippi. Made famous through the writing of Nash Buckingham in the first part of the 20th century, it has become a place of historical significance that many hope to visit in their lifetime.

This same area is now home to Beaver Dam Hunting Services; a family owned business providing professionally guided duck hunts since 1982. The property and habitat we hunt is as vast and diverse as the species of waterfowl that call it home during the winter. From flooded grain fields and willow sloughs, to the hallowed cypress filled waters of Beaver Dam, we hope to provide a hunt of a lifetime as you experience legendary waterfowling at its best.
