In 1982 Missouri started Ten Mile Pond Conservation Area. This 3,755 acre area was aimed at reestablishing wetland habitat.
Through manipulation of water levels, they provide high quality natural foods, such as millet, smartweed, sprangletops, sedges,
pigweeds, and invertebrates. In combination with Ten Mile Pond, other conservation areas, and National Wildlife Refuge systems add
to the success and tradition of hunting here in Southeast Missouri.
Located just across the Mississippi River in Tennessee is the Reelfoot National Wildlife Refuge. This area is currently 10,428 acres
large and may exceed a waterfowl population of over 500,000. Along with Reelfoot, here in Southeast Missouri we host several
waterfowl management areas. Mingo National Wildlife Refuge area being one of the largest. This area is 21,592 acres and is made
up of just over 15,000 acres of bottomland hardwood forest. In combination with Otters Slough (4,866 acres) and Duck Creek (6,234
acres) two highly successful management areas, you can understand why we here in Southeast Missouri have had such a high
success rate. Due to the growing trend of rice production in the area, and the abundance of flooded fields, hunting has continued to
get better.
At PHC we have done our best to provide multiple food supplies, and plenty of resting areas for the waterfowl. We have upwards of
14 places to hunt at one time, but have pledged to hunt two to three spots per day. This prevents us from burning out our spots and
has increased the average harvest each year. We are very proud of our waterfowl hunting heritage, and extremely satisfied with the
area we have created. We welcome you to enjoy this wonderful sport with us.
And remember to take a kid hunting so that our tradition will live on forever.






Pinhook Hunting Club was founded by life long friends and hunting partners; Jamie Pollock, Rick
Schuerenberg, Mark Dugan, and David Crader. Dedicated to keeping our rich hunting tradition alive
here in Southeast Missouri, they purchased a small piece of land in Mississippi County. As the
number of hours, and success in the field grew each year, so did the size of PHC. They started the
club to provide a premiere waterfowl guide serviced hunting situation on some of the best waterfowl
real estate anywhere.

Pinhook Hunting Club is located in
one of the most natural waterfowl
habitats in the nation.
PHC is made up of almost 1,000 acres of floodable row
crops, and the only privately managed flooded green
timber in the area. Strategically located through out
Ten Mile Pond Conservation Area. Located in
Mississippi County, 5 miles southeast of East Prairie
on Hwy 102. This area was once a lowland hardwood
forest intermingled with cypress tupelo sloughs.
Most of the area flooded seasonally and was an important area for wintering waterfowl.
