Pykie Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Anyone use one of these spinning fur decoys when daytime calling foxes? What has been your success? Seems to work well for the Yanks when calling Coyotes or Grey Foxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 I have two. One is called a Rockin' Rabbit.(sent to me by a friend in the USA) One of mine spins, the other 'shakes'. Both work well in daylight/dusk. I use them in conjunction with my Foxpro and horse hoof bait. That way the Fox get's sight, sound and smell. Here's the Rockin' Rabbit one that I use. This one goes round and round slowly and also shakes. The other one is very similar to a MoJo Critter. https://www.bushwear.co.uk/western-rivers-deceptor-rabbit-decoy-314265.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powler Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I got one on a best fox call seems to work ok, the movement seems to make the fox concentrate on the movement, only thing is make sure any grass near it is not to long as its gets twisted up in it and stops moving. I did see on youtube an American lad make a decoy from a remote control car motor taped into a plastic box with a decoy attached and sticking out, it worked but you could hear the motor whirling.

wymberley Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 Mother's 'at. Literally Mum's fur hat secured to a worn Anschutz rifle firing pin spring mounted on a Pecking Percy pigeon decoy motor. Set up on a timer in parallel with a Colibri caller. Deadly.

wymberley Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) Mother's 'at: Posted before, but thanks to photobucket the picture has been lost. I've looked and looked but can no longer find any reference to the old "Pecking Percy". This device moves left and right and a cam also gives an up and down movement. The ball of fur/feathers is mounted on a weakish spring - actually a worn Anschutz firing pin spring - which in turn is jubilee clipped to the arm of Percy. Powered by 12 volts ( the 1.2Ah battery lasts for ages) the 'at gives a fair imitation of a dervish on a bad LSD trip and is irresistable to fox especially, as shown, when connected in parallel to a caller. The 'at takes just a few minutes to knock up given some fur and I just happen to have a spare Pecking Percy kicking about.................although it's been in the garage for some time so I'd need to check that it still works. Searching "mother's 'at" will give more info'. Edited February 2, 2019 by wymberley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
