Been along time coming. I had been going out for a while now and never got lucky. My 2 best chances came when i wasnt even hunting for fox! Archery deer, i sent an arrow over a nice red fox and small game i skimmed one with a 22, and was unable to connect with a better shot.
Me and my buddy went out almost every weekend with our Lohman game call with squealing rabbits and only once called one in, but it hung up at the end of the gas well field about 50-60 yards out. It was a stretch, but my friend touched off two 3inch 20 gauge buckshot loads anyway, but we didnt get him. NO sign of the fox or signs of it being hit. It was a far crack shot but we were desperate to finally get one.
Since that day, and a few years later we got back into it. me and my brother this time, and we called one within 22 rifle range at night but it looked decievingly long range at night with the red lens on the spotlight so we didnt take the shot.
This year i was able to get out one good snowy morning with our new electronic digitial FoxPro call, and finally had success!
Within 5 minutes i see a red fox circling around our position about 35 yards out. I dropped it clean with a 3 1/2 inch #4 buckshot load thru my remington 870 turkey extra full choked shotgun.
Went out again a few more times but unsuccessful. Season closed about 2 weekends ago. Now its time for some northern mountain coyotes hopefully this march!
