NWR teniente Hunt

Got drawn for next week to hunt whitetail and exotics archery hunt. I have hunted this tract for nilgai last year a got a decent bull just curious if there has been any major changes to the hunt area?
Are the lake beds full?
Have the mowed the roads?
I know the rut doesn't usually pick up till late dec but how are the bucks acting? (any prerut sparring, etc)
Any other insights?

Thanks y'all in advance and wish me luck

Awesome Nilgai! Got drawn for Nilgai in Feb. Goo luck on your hunt!
