Fox calling

[Barky 24]

Hi guys after abit of advice iv got a foxcall uk (the black caller) and best fox call (the metal one) none of which are working I used to use the black one all the time with no problems calling them right in to like 5-10 metres this year no luck what so ever. Where I shoot is light enough to not use a lamp but as soon as I give even the smallest of calls the fox is off like a shot! Anyone have an idea why this is.... I know that I am the only one in the area that will be lamping and shooting them, but its starting to really pissed me off now lol... Atb barky

wind direction and is the fox seeing you.once the fox as picked up human scent or seen you and you have been calling it next time it will avoid the call they dont forget.

More or less as above

if you say its lit by lights where you shoot try using bait to draw them in and climb nearest tree and wait or get highseat set up and nail them that way.

you may think your the only caller in the area but some foxes have big ranges. and some people like to have a call over the odd gate

if you are going to try and put bait down i wouldnt shoot for a week just keep put it down when dark then go home if it not that far to travel.this time of year is best for baiting when its dark early cause you dont get crows and buzzards takein ya bait.

sounds like the foxes on your patch have seen (heard) it all before
