Leonardo,
You can damn near drive to your hunting area...Plan on spending the day back there...It doesn't always happen right off the bat.....

Do you know the rundown of the day of the hunt goes?
What exactly em I expecting that day in the morning?

No....That's the lake manager....Nobody drives back there, but you and Brown's Cove hunters...And, I'm guessing Brown's Cove can only be accessed from boat now....4:00 am at the entrance gate....Drive back to the sign, I have pictured....The road is Ok, but 4x4 would be nice with all this rain.
I'm not an expert on the Corral but I would say set up as far deep in as you can. Birds roost all over there but their safety valve is the canyon behind that goes back to private. They may bail to Camp Hope but I would put money that they pull back into the narrows there.
I appreciate the info brother! You’ve giving me more help than them lol. Perfect, I recently bought a 4x4 that will come in handy. Are blinds okay to use?

I really appreciate the help brother. When you say deep in as I can, do you mean all the way to east of corral?

When Jason says, "Set up as far deep as you can", he means as far southeast as you can...There's an actual corral back to your right (south) in the oaks...Before you do any of that, make sure you owl hoot or crow call...They could be closer and you don't want to bump them...If you get a strike (gobble), get as close as you can without being detected...Remember this is all done in the dark or with a red light...There's a 2 track that takes you right to the corral (same road you drove in on)...Stay on it walking...Then adjust accordingly...
ps...I never use a pop-up blind with a gun.
Blinds are good only if you can setup day before but since you can't I just recommend good camo/concealment. Maybe a leafy suit. You jave been givin great intel by Steve and Jason. Best of luck! Got my first bird last year in that spot. Nice tom with 1" spurs. I believe we passed him on the roost but still managed to call him in. Watched him put on a show then kapoow!

Anyone have intel on the Camp Hope zone? Ill be heading out saturday in the rain to go have a look. Ill be hunting it on 4/5 so I wanted to get a scout in before the season gets going. Look to be a few chutes that turkeys could use to get back into private. Im also hunting with a total noob and would love to help him get on a bird if possible.
Few birds and the ones around were super spooky for some “private” land birds. Cuz managed one.
