Littlefield also contains a 70-acre man- made lake that offers outstanding Crappie, Bluegill, Perch, Channel Catfish, Carp, and Large-mouth Bass fishing.  The lake is restricted to electric motors only, and anglers can find a fish cleaning table on the south side of the boat ramp parking lot.

Audubon County is one of the prime areas in the state for pheasant hunting and holds a few quail as well. Although it is one of the smaller counties in Iowa, if its hunting you are after, there is no shortage of game.  Along with pheasants and quail Audubon County is home to a few other game species. White-tail deer and turkey can be found roaming around a few properties of the ACCB’s while different species of waterfowl can be found throughout the county also.  Places to hunt and fish are listed below: ·
