Tall grasses still wave in the breeze at Lake Nettie NWR, with few trees to break up the view. It might look like open country, but the grassland cover is high enough to hide deer. Hunters come here each fall to participate in archery, muzzleloader and firearms seasons, and a youth hunt is also held. Hunting is walk-in only. The most effective method is to glass the area and then stalk the deer when the right one is found. Some hunters slowly walk through the Refuge hoping to get a shot when they flush a deer. A popular spot for local hunters, Lake Nettie NWR offers excellent success rates during all its seasons.
