It is the wintering grounds of the Central Flyway. They raise a lot of rice in the area and have several fresh water refuges for the birds to rest on during the day. If interested contact me and I'll be glad for you to come along on a hunt with me and my two boys. If you would like to bring a group down you can contact Will Beatty with Central Flyway Outfitters, his website is www.hunttexas.com. They also provide alligator hunts for those that like something a little wilder. Al T's is good, but Sartains Seafood in Beaumont blows them away! $20 per plate gets you all the fried shrimp, boiled shrimp, BBQ crab, fish and much more, I promise you will not be disappointed.
