Santa Anna Hunting Area

Santa Anna Hunting Area started in 1986 when John R. Stearns recognized that accessible hunting was disappearing in Texas. What began as a one-man operation has evolved into a serious preserve run by Gerry and Eldena Stearns, who handle everything from bird production to day-to-day operations.

Each half-day hunt includes: - Professional dog handlers and trained dogs - Bird cleaning, packaging, and ice - No bag limits on birds - All you bring: ice chest, shotshells, shotgun

"With the proper mix of birds, dogs, cover and personnel you can create an outdoor experience as old as time itself." - Gerry Stearns

Customized packages available. Reservations and deposits required.

Gerry spent years building the infrastructure—pens, kennels, bird processing facility—while learning game bird production from his father. In 2002, they upgraded to a state-of-the-art NPIP-certified, A1 Clean hatchery. Eldena brings gamebird experience dating back to 1982 and personally trains dogs and guides hunts.
