Has anyone ever had luck with a red fox mating call?

I have never had much luck calling fox during the mating season. Has any one ever had much luck or tried the red fox mating sound? Or do you have any other tricks for reds or grays during the mating season?

Thanks,

Rocky
 
Once but couldnt get it into shotgun range even with my mouse sqeeze. Try fox fighting sounds I have a lot of success with them. Though unless you have access to a lot of land I dont reccomend calling them during mating season. Need to let "seed" for next year. Are you calling them day or night?
 
Redfox fur,

Thanks for your suggestions, We are hunting at night. Actually have a lot of land to hunt and picking up more all the time. I certainly understand your point, but right now of the 17 fox we killed only 3 were females. Is there really any difference between hunting them during mating season and waiting until after mating season is over? Because I can't stand the thought that I would have to quit already.

Well, in your case you can hunt as much as you want Im just mentioning to those folk who dont have much land access to not over hunt an area. As far as worry about the ratios of males to females you shouldnt have to worry about it. Congrats on the 17 fox. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
