Ok - first set success!   Didn’t even have time to set call.  Andrew good with mouth squeaks!  Says Pygmy taught him everything he knows re lips.

Lest we not forget, Moog kept it real tonight..... And missed a fox. But it was only to stay humble. What a night ! 2 sets. 2 kills. I was a cheerleader tonight. Thankfully Moog at least let me c

Way ta go you's two!!!!  Ya make a great team!

If possible, give us a quick rundown of you rig, which is awesome by the way. And calling sequence. Along with set up scenario.

We could learn a bunch from you and Andrew. Besides the getting stinky part!

I'll let Moog handle the run down. All I did was tell him where they were.

I can tell you this foreshadowing... Dudes got a serious rig !

But we did find out Sitka is NOT poop proof

Probably one of the tests that the independent laboratories skip on when testing gear.

still at early stages of learning myself so not sure I have much to offer but quick rundown from last night:

1st set - Andrew caught eyes walking in.   We never even got set up.  He mouth squeaked a bit until I could at least get my stuff unloaded and the fox cooperated by responding to his mouths squeaks.   Close shot.  

2nd set - again caught eyes before setting up call.   Fox started coming in to mouth squeaks.   I wasn’t very patient and shot and missed.  Should have waited.  Short break then set up caller.  To the best of my recollection, this was the sequence that fooled the yote:

nutty nuthatch - 5 min

titmouse tantrum - 5 min

platinum gray pup distres - little longer and we had some yotes respond

single female long howl - 3 howls and silence

female submissive - a few minutes and silence

long male howl - 2x silence

pair of yotes - few minutes

saw eyes and went back to pups in distress

yote then worked it’s way in from 200 out until somewhere between 80-100 and when it stopped and turned slightly I shot.  

Fun night for sure. 

Rig is a 2A 223 with proof carbon barrel and pulsar XP50 thermal.  As Andrew likes to point out, at this point, the dogs are costing me about $500/lb.  lol.  Hoping to average that down over time.

Ha ha $500 per pound. Good thing us hunters don’t pay attention to silly numbers like that
