50 members right now. Thinking about selling 10 more to make 60 total. If you are interested you can have a packet mailed to you. Click on the link and go to membership and fill out that little info deal and they'll mail the information.
I agree with TODO, those Clarksdale clubs are 7000-8000 acres if I remember correctly. 27 Break, Black Bayou, Refuge, and all of those are smaller than Catfish and Catfish is right around 10,000 acres. The important thing though is the number of members/acreage. You could have a place like Concordia with 7000-8000 acres and only 10 members.....look at that number of acres per member.....or Catfish that has close to 10,000 acres with 76 members. I think the Conservation league has hundreds of members with around 10,000 acres.
Does Catfish have 76 members or memberships? I personally know a fella in that camp that has multiple memberships in his name.
By the way, I completely agree about acres/members ratio. Furthermore, that is truly astounding that Concordia has that many acres and only 10 members.

I have heard that they have 22,000 acres within the corporation...but I think 4 clubs are held within that corp. However, from my understanding, all of the clubs can hunt any of the land.

But isn't Delta Wildlife made up of multiple clubs?
The old Reed's Deer Camp at Fitler used to be 15,000 acres. Now has a new owner and he has sold off some parts.

I hunt on about 60,000 acres. If you count the members during the week, it is real good ratio. On the weekends though the ratio gets way off...

I should have said Shares (there are 76 Shares in the LLC, I looked into it a while back). There are several people that have multiple memberships. Dr. Almand has 3. A man from Jackson has 6. Dr. Beckham owns 2 and part of another one. The Brutons own a few. There's some more with multiples. That's the thing.....as one comes up for sale the last 6 or 7 have been bought back by existing members. There's either 2 or 3 members in Concordia that have multiple memberships so the number of hunters is small.

Delta wdlife has four camps as I remember. They have some rules about where you can hunt on opening days. All my info is 34th hand so I'm probably wrong.

Not to Hi-Jack the thread but do any of them have any agriculture fields that are used for duck hunting? Reason I ask is most ive seen have just been timber.
