Hunting

There are approximately 9,465 acres of prime acreage surrounding the Alabama River Lakes Project Management Office to enjoy the various kinds of game and non-game wildlife. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers manages approximately 5,600 acres of this public-use land, along the beautiful Alabama River, for bow hunting and small-game hunting.

There are seven areas open to hunting at Woodruff Lake, and seven areas at Dannelly Reservoir and 11 different hunting areas at Claiborne Lake.
