Some of yall might remember this thread: https://texashuntingforum.com/forum...g-to-improve-it-for-wildlife#Post5784361


I bought this 20 acres in Cedar Lane for my boys and I to hunt Deer, Ducks, and Pigs while I take call at the hospital. My job has changed, so I am now selling the property to buy more land in Arkansas to hunt bears. The last two years we have only bow hunted the pigs and deer—this last year only traditional archery.

The land features 2 ponds, each about an acre, a fenced food plot, a Fort/Deer blind, mature live oaks, pecans and elms. It borders a 500 acre ranch that only bow hunts on the north and west, a hay meadow on the south, and the back pasture of a residential house on the east. The fence line on the south and east has been left unmowed about 50 yards off the fence since I purchased the property.

I’ve planted 6 Mossy Oak Native Nursery Nuttall and Cow Oak trees for alternate mast production than the numerous live oaks and pecans.


A fenced food plot on the highest portion of the land attracts deer and could be a possible building site if desired.
Japanese Millet and Brown Millet has been successfully planted to attract a wide variety of ducks (Black bellied Whistlers, blue wing teal, gadwall, hooded mergansers, ring neck, and lesser scaup have all been taken and I completely whiffed on a stud Pintail drake and hen this year. Harvey destroyed my duck blind, but I’ve found the Johnson grass provides plenty of cover to hunt the east pond.

I’ve killed snipe, dove and squirrel as well. This year I jumped woodcock the first I’ve seen in the wild.


Our local wildlife biologist will grant me 1 alligator tag every three years and we’ve had several spend time in the ponds.


This land won’t produce Boone and Crockett bucks, but there are lots of deer. The most I’ve seen in one season are 8 different legal bucks. But my boys have all had a blast shooting pigs and their first deer, it’s the rare hunt where we don’t see deer. I’ve included game camera pictures from about 2018 and at all times in the year. This land hasn’t had cattle on it since before I bought it and has been solely managed for wildlife.

If you are in the Houston area and want a place to hunt a broad range of species this one has been a real treat for me.
Here is a link to a blog post I wrote when I first bought it: https://doing-manly-things.com/2015...&preview=true&_thumbnail_id=2734

Here is a link to my blog about planting the duck pond: https://doing-manly-things.com/2015...&preview=true&_thumbnail_id=2812
I’m asking $200,000 for this property. If you would like to take a look, let me know. I’d be happy to give you a personal tour. I will post more pictures in the comments below.

If you want a tip,,, post pics from 2022, not from 2 and 3 yrs ago,,,,,, would probably generate more interest. Also post the county map showing your property, so the potential buyers can see the size of surrounding parcels. In these days of dividing land, potential buyers wonder if all the surrounding plots are 20 acres.
Just trying to be helpful.

Would you consider leasing? I am only interested in duck hunting. I am trying to find a small lease I can take my wife and daughter to to get more experience. I live near Van Vleck and its all but impossible to find something near me.

Fellas, most of my cameras were in Arkansas taking some pics last year, thus the sale of this land. But here are some pics from this season. Not as many, but here you go:

Like I said, I had the cameras focused more on these dudes....
