Hey congrats on the tag, I bet you did a happy dance when you got notice. There has to be a farmer in that area that has several nusiance elk on their property and would gladly take a small donation or a few prime cuts as payment to hunt... I would scan Google earth pin point some areas and take a couple afternoons knocking on doors if you really want to make sure you get some Elk hunting time in. Good luck and I hope you do drop one!!!
I believe its against the law to hurt elk , even if you have a tag. lol
We drew a tag couple years ago for 60. At the same we spoke to people from opp mnr hydro roads and a bunch of locals. I was shown a pic taken by a farm around 62 and hwy 7 of a nice bull on a farm. Another bull was also hit by a truck that same month in the same area. We also saw cows close to the timbermart at 62 and hwy 7. We just did that one day just to look at one as we were losing wind in our sails and just wanted to make sure they existed hahaha. Cooper road i believe. That area of 61 might be a good area to start. The opp guys and hydro were helpful as well as the roads guys. Good place to start. Good luck.
Bahhhh
Back in my highschool days I was in an environmental class in madoc school. I participated a few when the released the elk. They were supposed to be unloaded into this corral made of 2 rows of snow fence, roughly 7 feet high a remain there f observation for a while then be radio collared and released. I am told that They dropped the doors on the trailer and the elk made one circle around the fence then all but a few calves and old cows jumped the fence!! And that was east of bancroft. My mother , a place close to deer rock lake and there are a couple that show up once in a while, but not like they do in the madoc area. I do know that a lot of people will will will hunters hunt their land when they won't let people with rifles. Good luck and hope somebody comes thru for you!!
