Re: Public land turkey hunting welcome to the board....perhaps you should consider asking for some PM messages on your question as most folks here are pretty careful about specific info on public land. Im sure you all get some responses that way. I m not from that area so cannot help you.

Re: Public land turkey hunting https://www.saw.usace.army.mil/Portals/ ... %20Map.pdf
The link is to a map of the area taken from the Corps of Engineers website. The WMA's are marked. I live in Halifax County VA and have hunted the Corps land along the Banister River (a tributary of the reservoir) quite a bit, although I haven't hunted along the lake proper. I have found this land more suitable for hunting deer than for turkeys. The Corps land, at least along the Banister, is mostly wooded bottomland. While turkeys may roost on the Corps land, in the spring they usually head for the adjacent more open farm land to strut and if you don't have permission to hunt this private land, hunting the Corps land can be frustrating. |
