Title: Peninsula quality elk Rifle
Post by: ASienkiewich on June 14, 2021, 01:50:23 PM: Decided to apply for this permit this year because my dad always has, basically for nostalgic reasons from back in his younger days LOL. And what do know I drew it and he didn’t! He has basic knowledge of these units but if anyone has any pointers or tips that would be appreciated. We will be slamming it with some scouting trips soon but there is a lot of area, so we just need to narrow it down!

Thanks in advance

Its a short season and right after archery so elk have been pushed hard for two weeks and that makes it tougher.. Basically a 5 day gov tag hunt..

Stay away from where anyone else is hunting.... there are some tribal hunters that can foil your plans pretty easy, without even knowing about it. And there are bear hunters in the area at that time as well.
Tracking is more of an option in that area than other places in the state. Bulls will be with a small group. They probably won't be talking much, but that can change.
