Ok, now it's time to start ice fishing

We'll see what tomorrow brings now that I got this other stuff out of the way.  Buck was on Wednesday, elk a few weeks ago.  Public land.

Huge Congrats! Both of those are very nice quality animals! Looks like you'll have plenty of meat to snack on during the long days on the ice!

Thanks guys.  I'm primarily a meat hunter and deer and elk is all we eat.

Well done Fishslap....... Congratulations on your success and sharing the photo's with us, awesome animals!! :clap: :thumbsup: :bow: 
Question....roughly, how many pounds of venison would an Elk of that size yield after it's all cleaned up?

Thanks!  Not sure on weight.  Probably 200-250lbs.  The front shoulders and neck weighed 100lbs at the butcher.  I do the hind quarters, backstraps and tenderloins myself, so not sure of the exact weight.

Thanks guys.  It was a hard earned bull and definitely a nice muley that I feel very grateful for.  We'll be eating steaks all year. Oh, and it is time to start ice fishing.  From this morning...
