	Boating and fishing are permitted year-round in accordance with state regulations. Quality of fishing ranges from fair to good with catfish, crappie, bream and bass making up the principle game fish Hunting opportunities attract many outdoor enthusiasts. As a significant wintering area for mallards, duck hunting can be excellent. Other refuge hunting season include deer, turkey, squirrel, rabbit, quail, and raccoon Characterized by rivers, cypress-tupelo swamps, oxbow lakes and bottomland hardwood forests, the Cache River wetlands support a tremendous array of wildlife species. Although most often noted as wintering grounds for tens of thousands of mallards, many other wildlife species make the refuge their home for all or part of the year.
