baiting elk

[Button Nubbs]

I started getting pics within a couple days of putting them out. I had close to 250 pics of elk but only 1 pic of a deer and about 200 pics of a damn raven. maybe try a different spot? Maybe the deer just don't like the salt but they should have been chowin on those apples.

I have seen guys in Idaho carry bags of salt and just spray it around.

Let me say this apples
Work great u need to deploy trailcams and find spot were they are going and coming
I thought they wouldn't go back all the time like deer do they will once they find 50 gallons week is nothing
I also found out the bulls take over a bait pile running deer and others off!!!
Remember baiting elk deer once u start do not stop you'll have fun

Elk and deer also love salt blocks

Thing with apples... u have to have a reliable source of getting ALOT and then have a place where you are not killing yourself to get them to where the elk are... a herd of elk will decimate 200 lbs in a week or more. The key if your going to hunt over them is you cant let your spot go dry

Go to your local feed store and buy blocks of salt. They sell them in fifty pound blocks and little brick size blocks. Or you can buy a fifty pound bag of salt. I use bagged salt. Seems to work just fine. Good luck.

Trace mineral blocks seem to work well until fall.
