Where to find fox?

[jackmaster]

Yeah they're all red fox. They can be red, crossed or even black.

have you ever got a all black one

[Maverick]

Yeah I called it in for my buddy. Black with silver tipped hair and one back white foot lol. I dont have a pic on my phone or is post it. Only one ove seen around here but you can Google them. He shot his opening day of fox season so the hide wasn't worth tanning.. 22-250s aren't good for them either..... Fur buyer told me to use a .22, I use a 12 gauge.

I think there are more of the black ones near Rainier.   Cascade fox....   I don't remember.  Obviously you can't shoot them in the park, but they do breed and spread out.   Their hides used to be PREMIER

I've seen a few out here in Olympia, just gotta be in the right place at the right time.

I've killed 7 fox myself and have gotten my dad, bro, and buddy each one. September is easiest time to get one but the hides are real thin and look.like crap. I prefer to wait till November through January. I don't like to shoot fox that iant worth skinning out. With so few around it just seems like a waste..

gotta agree with ya there, i feel the same about bobcat, why killem if their hides aint worth a damn 

[Maverick]

Yeah id love to shoot a bobcat to put on the wall!

[jackmaster]

i dont know where you live maverick but if your somewhere around graham we should hook up this winter, i know where are lots of bobcats, i am a novice varmit caller so you would probably want to do all the calln, i here cats come in real fast if they are in ear shot, the only cat i called in came in pretty quick but he came in from a direction i didnt expect and he spotted me 

[Maverick]

I'm over in tri cities jack. I've always heard cats take forever to come in.

[seth30]

You guys are talking about 2 of the 4 predators on my bucket list   Cant wait for them to be in season

[jackmaster]

i always thought that until i bought a couple predator huntn movies, sometimes the cat would be right on top of them before they finished their first calling seqeunce, other times it would take up to 45 minutes, it sure is fun though and bobcats are just cool ass little critters, i use to get alot of them when i had hounds but i would never kill more than 2 a night, personal rule....if you ever want to go and your gonna be on the westside during the right time especially in january and febuary let me know, like i said i know some spots that have lots of cats, but i worth a damn at calln them in, i am thinkn about putn up the mouth calls and gettn a fox pro 

[snowshoes22]

I live in the north basin and we have a lot of cats.  They come in faster than most people think.  The hard part is spotting them.  They will sit there and watch you call.  Last year I called one in 2 weeks before season so i couldn't shoot it.  It watched me for 15 minutes 40 yards away. 

[Maverick]

I just need one to put on the wall with the 2 fox. haha. I definetly trade a fox hunt for a bob cat hunt! The fox pros are really nice. If you do a lot of coyore hunting then they are definetly worth the money. Never had any luck with them for fox though. Mouth calls seem to work better.

[jackmaster]

hell lets set up a time this january, i got bobcats in my backyard, this tom that hangs out once in awhile i figure will go 40 plus pounds, if you aint comfortable staying at my house then we can set the wall tent up in the back i have a kick ass stove for it and power for a t.v and dvd player, if we hunted friday and saturday that would give you sunday to travel home but i am sure we could find you a bobcat in 2 days, you gotta do the calln though cause i have made alot of stands and have only called in one, i am probably doing somethn wrong, i dont move around except my eyes and i will useally sit in one spot for an hour or more, i have heard that if they dont come in to where you can see them in 45 minutes to an hour then relocate, who knows, i have hunted blacktail my whole life and i am thinkn these damn bobcats are just as sneaky....

[Maverick]

Im betting you're right. sounds like a good plan!
