So Friday night i went to my dads and decided to call for alittle bit...just to see what I see. I didnt have any luck at first, so I change locations, only by a few hundred yards. I climb to the top of this 12 ft high old burned out cedar stump I used to climb as a kid (not so young anymore) and sat down. I had a decent view of a tree line surrounded by a tree farm to my left/straight ahead. Behind me was my dads shop and brush that blocked my view, and a large cedar tree to my right that blocked some of my view...but what the heck.
Wind was still. I sit down (and when I say sit, I mean gingerly...the stump is burned out alot on the middle, so there is not much room to sit comfortably) and blow a quick burst with a screamin rabbit and then give a few howls.
No more than say 3 minutes, do I see a yote bouncing up through the tall grass at about 35 yards. I blow kisses and he stops...walks up a slight incline (which is great cause now I can see his head) and stays put. I raise the gun and aim for the face...and get ready to pull the trigger...he is getting a little ansy so I blow a kiss or two which holds him up...pull the trigger...
NO...safety was on! Stupid stump climb~!
I move to pull the safety off and he retreats out of sight into the trees...just enough to where I cant see him...doesnt return after I blow on a few calls...
Sigh...so, no shot, but I was excited to call one in. Sorry..no pics either...
