Farmer-of-the-Futre Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hey all, happy new year! Over the last few years on our land at home we have had hedges, trees and a bit of cover put in. This has attracted many different animals including mr fox. I am hoping to try and get rid of him/her as we are trying to get a few pheasants over and have a walk around shoot each year. I hope to ambush the fox with a shotgun and call it in to the correct range. But what call is best? I am reffering to mouth calls/whistles and dont really want to spend much, say under £15? And before anyone says. I have had no luck making any noise by sucking on the back of my had! Thanks in advance, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cockercas Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hey bud. Try this. Hold your hand out, fingers together with your palm facing you. Now their will be a gap at the bottom of your fingers. Now purse your lips together place the gap between your fingers over your lips and suck. Or get a wooden cloths peg. Take the spring out and tape a bit of cassette tape tight across the back of the peg. Tape the other bit of peg above the cassette tape. The pegs should be back to back. Now blow. You can alter the sound by slightly bending the peg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david hunter Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 hi if you know anyone who reloads a 22 centre fire have them punch out the primer and push a squeak out of a toy or dogsqueak. fits perfect in the neck of the case.blow hard through one end sounds like rabbit in distress.blow primer end it squeaks.cheap as chips and it works.

Pipmoff Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Wam call or a Foxcall.uk call are both about £10 and will do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remy 700 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Primos calls are fab , the one that has 3 reeds that fits into the roof of your mouth is excellent about £6 and totally hands free , loud or mouse squeak they are superb , I find the two reed model a bit harsh , cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Try making your own by using lollypop sticks/cassette tape. I've made loads, and have called in more foxes with these, than any other 'bought' ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Either a Widgeon call or the WAM call which is very good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 What steve_b_wales suggests works well and is very cheap to make or replace if you loose one, or alternatively if you enjoy "tinkering" and like to make yoir own equipment you could try this: I made and sent out about a dozen to members of this forum and got some pretty positive feedback from them! Happy Hunting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
