While basically road hunting with my oldest son Friday night, we found a REALLY nice wallow. It was a small creek pouring into what was basically a damed up section, forming a pond that was about 3 ft deep and 10 in diameter. Around that, in every direction was pretty deep mud that streched out about 15 ft in all directions from the pond. In this mud were multiple tracks of what looked like elk, deer, bear, coyote, every possible animal in the area.
I have one day left to hunt, last day of the season. Should I hunt this wallow or go find a clearcut somewhere? What time of day do elk like to use wallows? I'd assume middle of the day but I'm not sure. Should I just get to it and park myself over it at 5 am and sit there all day?
