Another wolf hunt

[xtrema-2]

Last week SJARs brother and I got out for a couple stands in the afternoon. Got to our last spot of the day and let the FoxPro play for less than 3 minutes before this healthy female started coming from 800yd. She made her way to 115yd where she didnt leave. This was 9kms from the double they got a month ago. Guessed the weight to be around 75lb but she felt a lot heavier after the near 1km walk.

Nicely furred animal - congratulations! Also curious as to what call you were playing. I have been using the flying squirrel call but no luck with it yet.

When you see one like that, you truly realize what a threat they are to big game populations.

Nice pics, is that a frozen lake you are on? Did she come out of a thick bush, never hunted wolfs before seems so cool.
Great job....
Congrats

Mostly distress sounds are what we use.

We certainly dont get the size of those in Northern AB,BC or NWT but this one is 6-6 or so nose to tail after boarding.

Yes it's a lake. Hunting the cuts or bush gives them even more of an advantage than they already have in my experience.

Hey Johnny, take me to Yellowknife, even if it's in an urn?
