DISCOVERING | U.P. Hunter Brings Home a Massive Bull Elk , Ice Fishing Outdoor Skills Academy


Subscribe:


Episode 117 - Sometimes Yoopers have to cross the bridge to hunt big game not found in the U.P. - like the once in a lifetime chance to hunt a Michigan elk. Jake Delvaux of Escanaba drew a tag for the 2024 season and opted to DIY hunt. Hear his story of how the hunt went and the massive six-by-seven bull elk he brought back to the U.P.

And a story from 2022 to brush up on your ice fishing skills. We revisit the DNR Outdoor Skills Academy on Lake Gogebic.

Also, don't mind my voice - I caught whatever cold bug was going around. Also why half the show is an old story (but new to the Discover the UP channel!)
