Jasper County, Tyler County, Texas · 12,706 acres open to public hunting
Annual Public Hunting Permit
About this property
12,706 acres in the fork of the Angelina and Neches rivers at B.A. Steinhagen Reservoir, on the Jasper–Tyler county line. More than half of that is open water; what is left is flat bottomland cut through with sloughs and low ridges.
These need no draw. You still need the right licence and permit, and the seasons below are the ones published for this property.
Hunting with a raptor? Your limit is 3 migratory game birds a day, and three times that in possession — the total across every species you fly at, not 3 of each. It caps the daily bags shown above.
TPWD: “Falconry daily bag and possession limits shall not exceed 3 and 9 migratory game birds respectively, singly or in the aggregate.”
