    Default What do you use in the rain?

    I have been using a Benn Lee box call and a Freak slate call for years but neither seem to work well in the rain. Since I cannot use mouth calls what call would you suggest that I use in wet weather? What have you had success with that is not a mouth call?

    Thanks
    Ranger

    On second thought, you could also use a wingbone call or an "egg" call (push button call)

    The only call is use in rain is "time to go home" call. Our birds don't seem to like it anymore than I do.
