Drizzle does not stop movement

[Adrian J Hare]

This morning at the edge of daylight I slipped out for a set before heading to BM's wife service. Thought I would stay close to home so just up the road I start out across a small field. The wind was still but a drizzle was falling as soon as I get to the setup point " Figures" :

I get the caller setup and move back to a tree and angle towards the tightest shooting area in front of the setup and grab the Pup open reed from the Quaker Boy Howler pack and thought I would start the set with a light jack rabbit.

I blow the call for like 30 seconds and catch movement out of the left side and Holly Hanna A yote is running right towards me. I swing with the 243 and he catches the movement and stops and POW !

All said and done, A male down and one less to harass the neighborhood animals and deer.

A fast hunt, but I did find it to warm to move and the drizzle soon changed to a little harder fall, so I packed it in just happy for the time I got this morning.

What I have found lately is: The nicer the day is(warm, very little wind), the harder it is to see anything or calling them in. I have to get out of the frame of mind "trying to think what a yote would be doing". There has been some fantastic days, and I thought they would be out in the sun....yeah right. The worse the day is, the better.
Congrats on the yote!!!!
