    sit in near a wood or heavy cover as above early morning or late evening. sometimes it is best not to use a call just
    watch and try to find where they are coming and going from the wood or cover. then set up an ambush. as for what
    call to use, well a fox could sit out of range and not come to any call. i had 4 calls with me one day the fox would not
    come to any i shook a box of matches as there were magpies around and in comes the fox.
