philpot 4,925 Posted April 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Well I have now taken delivery of BenBhoy's Isotec Gc350 caller and I am well pleased. Thank you Ben for replacing the aerial on the hand set, very good of you and a prompt delivery. I was playing around with various call in the garden and the magpie call attracted one from accross the back field so should be ideal for taking a photograph or two. A learning curve is now to take place but I have high hopes and it is nice and compact so no hassle carrying it to a chosen spot. I have a small tripod that extends to 24'' so ideal for lifting the sounder in vegitation and a padded fishing tackle shoulder bag to take the lot................winner winner.

Stavross 13,711 Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 I went out once with a lad that had one, it was on a summer’s evening, it didn’t pull any foxes in and seemed a bit of a gimmick to me, for me it’s the call that peeks an interest 1 Quote Link to post

philpot 4,925 Posted April 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Just thought I would ask, I must admit they look kind of weird whizzing around but having no knowledge of these things, it was worth asking. Phil Quote Link to post

shovel leaner 7,648 Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 I got one , it has worked on cubs on the first silage cut and near the den . It seemed to be of interest to them ..... but it might have also been just the rabbit distress call , possibly . I’ve also shot adult foxes that were feeding cubs . I can’t say if it helped , but it didn’t put them off . I only use it on evening or morning sit outs , for obvious reasons . Honestly, I think it’s more for US Coyote shooting, but can work in certain situations. Keep your money and see how you get on with just the caller . 2 Quote Link to post
