10 to 25 years ago there was a herd of 20 or so elk running around Wizard Lake. I watched them and encountered them and even looked for their drops. They had a range of several different stands of bush. They could be in bush from 40 acres to full quarters of bush. Between Wizard and Pigeon has enough bush for them to confuse you for a few seasons. There have been elk east of the lakes close to Millet too. You may see them driving by but not where you can hunt. Even got one lone trail cam pic of a young cow elk near the river in 246 a couple years ago. Never saw her again. Pretty ghostly in this WMU unless you have a old growth bush property around the lakes to hunt. Pigeon, Wizard, Watelet and Long lake areas all have potential.
You'd be better off hunting 224 or 332 and it would still be challenging to find them where you want them. 334 has a few elk too but they are somewhat elusive there too.
