Cat couldn’t resist.

[LuckyCards2006]

Only had the call on for 30 seconds, it couldn’t resist.

Can you see the speaker?

Unusual for a bobcat, you must have been on top of him when you started calling.

[txoutdoorsman24]

Nice. My buddies were calling Saturday and had come into a set up in less than 15-20 seconds

[Leon County Slayer]

That’s usually how it happens near us too. Congrats.

[Big Nate]

That’s awesome! Congrats

I’ve killed 7 bobcats with this fox pro, three of them almost jumped on the speaker.

Pretty cool stuff. What call sounds were they responding to?

All the foxes and bobcats respond quickly to jack rabbit distress call, coyotes take some work with different calls, usually a mixture, but I’m no expert. To me, fox and bobcats are easy to call.

I call in 1 bobcat to about every 35 coyotes seems like, give or take a few. I call in way more coyotes than cats but that could have a lot to do with the population. Even in good cat spots normally a coyote shows up first. And I don't give free passes in hopes of a cat showing up. Which some people do but I take the opportunity that's in front of me at the time.

Good job by the way. I haven't seen but one come in,in under 5 minutes. I think I sat down pretty close to where it was napping.

What’s your favorite call to start off with? I would love to kill the coyotes, we have them for sure.

Normally some sort of howl, nothing aggressive like a challenge howl. Then go to rabbit in distress. It really just depends on the time of year. Early on in late October/early November I'll just use rabbit in distress a lot of times. That's when the younger coyotes are less cautious so a lot of times that's all you need. Later in the year I use more coyote vocals.

Fox pro inferno, but I don’t think the speaker is loud enough. JMO.

How long do you call for and how long do you wait between calls?

I'll howl and wait 3 or 4 minutes. Maybe throw a few more howls out there and wait a few more minutes or just start in with distress. If I'm using an electronic I'll start out real low and gradually increase the volume. I don't ever call super loud but I'll leave it running constantly until I'm ready to go. If using a hand call I'll call for about 15 to 30 seconds and wait a minute or two and do it again. I stay on stand for 25 minutes. The last coyote I shot at the 30 minute mark. Most probably won't take that long to come in so not a lot of people wait more than 15 minutes. But I've killed enough past the 20 minute mark that I do. That's more of a preference on my part. If you shoot one early on keeping calling.

As for pauses into between calling I have done/do both and don't see much of a difference. I don't believe there's a right or wrong as far as that goes. You might decide that calling for a few minutes and sitting quietly for a few minutes and so on and so forth is what you want to do. That works too. I prefer to call constantly because that means less movement on my part.

No problem man. Hopefully you'll get into some. I plan on getting after them this weekend if it ain't windy. I know where at least 7 I can call in are.

I do a lot of scouting to increase my chances. I have some success calling blind but I like to know there's a coyote or two in the area.

[LuckyCards2006]

Got a coyote in the daylight.

Nice! Had a cat come in a week or so ago while deer hunting tried to shoot behind me in tree stand. Hard to do I guess with bow missed em withen 20 yard. So cool to watch them.
