Spot and stalk are the best by far, unless you are hunting with a bow, then I might suggest a ground blind over a wallow. For a big bull or buck on public land with a rifle you need to go high and away from roads. That is where they retreat to once the first shots have been fired. In that big country you almost have to have great optics and boots. Spend the morning glassing the high valleys for elk and brushy slopes for mule deer. Figure out where they are going to bed down, thend try to determine their escape route, then move in.

the best way to find elk on public land is a mixture of driving around and walking public land. i usally see a couple of herds of elk just driving around. the next thing to do is to figure out their patterns and bedding places. once you know thoe all you have to do is set up along their trails
