Has anyone hunted elk on this unit in Utah? I have found threads about the deer in the area, but not much on the Elk. I have been camping and fishing in the Round lake and Deep Creek areas, but never spent any time hunting or looking for elk. Any thoughts on the size of bulls that could be expected?
 
Hunted the Muzzy hunt last year. Great hunt with lots of nice bulls. I was told Fishlake was a good area for a 300 bull with potential to 350. I hunted after the "Any Weapon"c season and lots of the herd bulls were in the meat locker. I took a nice 6X6 that met my expectations.
 
There are good bulls on the unit its just finding them. On my cousins hunt a couple years ago we seen a bull that would push 375, this is on the late hunt. Just do your homework and go down and scout as much as you can and you will turn up some good bulls.

Spend a lot of time up there every year. I agree with what was said, there are a lot of 300- 350 class bulls, with an occasional monster. Biggest I've seen was taken a few years back- 387. Talk to Gary at Laskeside lodge, he is the Sheriff. He can point you in the right direction, being that he is up there year round.
