Ok now that we are a couple of years into the new units I want to ask about the Fish Lake Unit. I have hunted it in the past, but for the last 10 years or so I have been back to Hunting the Manti Unit.

I hunted the Manti Unit the first year of the new units and it was more crowded then I have ever remembered. The fact there are 8k tags for the unit is just messed up. While the unit is huge everyone hunts on the Wasatch Plaetue.

So now we are going back to Fish Lake. I have 1 pt and my dad has 2 pts and we put in together. If we get the tag I am curious from those that may have hunted it in the last couple of years how it is?
 
LAST EDITED ON Mar-12-14 AT 06:41PM (MST)[p]Oh I know the reason why. They have screwed up the Manti Unit for deer though. Way way to many tags. Big Massive unit but all 8,000 people hunt between Highway 6 and I70 and Highway 89 and highway 10.
 
My advice, go in with low expectations and that way you won't be disappointed.

It's been a while since I've seen a nice buck on the unit. The pressure seems about the same since the switch to individual units.

Good luck. With one point I'm hoping to be joining you on the Mt.
 
Plenty of deer...don't have high expectations....decent bucks are few and far between.

"I'll see you all this coming fall in the Big Rock Candy Mountains!"

 
No there are plenty of nice bucks but they tend to hide on the private land. There is also a ton or crappy ones on public lands.
 
I haven't had good luck on the Fishlake for deer. The elk are doing great. I am not sure what happened to the deer. Any onions. from any one who knows the area?
