Good shootin boys , looks like you have those foxes in a spot of bother down your way , every time I blow a fox whistle up here I get a Cat , its just to warm for them here I think , so for now Cats it is.

Keep up with the great hunting and the photos are great to see as well.

Well done lads.

well paul it sorter depend on where they are, we were at a lake once its all dry now and there sometmes is a fox or two out there, just on dark they are usually looking for crickets and mice and dont even care about the whistle, caller or sqeeke but we were on a big creek with porkypine grass in it and they like the caller and whistle, out on the lake the crickets are every were so they can get a good feed out of them but out on the creek theres sorter not many but they are still looking for em just dont get a guts full, so they come running in, one didnt coz he had a gut full neally, he just wondered in. on the lake about 2 an a half hours before dark we go out and start whistling till about an hour before dark because when they are sleeping in the grass a few hours before dark they are just about to go out and get a feed and when they here the whistle they think they have an easy feed, we spend our last 45 mins to an hour hunting along the side of the lake looking to stalk one by that time they have a gut full no point to call them.

That's interesting information Jerry.

It sounds and looks like you Blokes have really figured out their habbits.
