I got access to a buddy of mines place to do some predator calling. Last night was my 5th or 6th time out there. I've been able to get foxes and coyotes to come in each time, but with the tall grass on the edge of the brush getting a shot has been tough. I decided to make a makeshift decoy out of an old rabbit skin I had in my fly tying desk to try and draw them out a little further into the open to get a clear shot. First stand of the night i had 3 foxes come out all the way up to the decoy giving me a nice open shot. First fox and first animal with my fox pro I bought 3 years ago. Ill be Heading to another property tonight in search of my first bobcat.

Gray’s are the easiest to call in and they don’t take their time getting to the call. I’ve had great luck with bird sounds and platinum gray fox. They are cool critters and I don’t shoot many unless someone ask me to. I called in 4 at one time once lol. Good job and keep at it.
