Title: The Howling!
Post by: nastygunz on October 18, 2019, 06:36:30 PM
 I've seen a few coyotes trotting around and it has kind of rekindled my interest, I may have to dust the old .223 off  :yoyo:

Whos howler is that nasty?

Mine! Made by Bearmanric!(Rick Robbins).  The vast majority of new predator hunters go with the stereo typical rabbit squeal call when you really need to learn how to talk coyote and bark and howl.

I have a 'one of a kind' howler that was a joint project by Rick and Hunt n Carve. Unlike yours, mine sits on a shelf between two Cronk howlers.

Rich Cronk!  I have one of his calls somewhere.  It is hard to compete with the electronic callers nowadays when it comes to hand calls.

Hunt n Carve did this one for me.  Came off one of our 4-H steers many years ago. laid out in the weather for a long time and by the time I picked it up it was almost paper thin.  Asked Dave to see if he could clean it up and carve a coyote on it.  Told him I wasn't to concerned if it fell apart or if it was to thin to put a coyote on it after he cleaned it  He is the best....

I love those horn howlers. I have a Cronk, Reese, and a Hunt n Carve. They are so easy to make realistic howls with. I put the one Dave made me away in a safe spot and now I cant find it.  :doh2:

Kind of embarrassed because I can't remember who made this one. Cronk and Dave always put their name on theirs, or I thought.

 I think you need to send that howler to me so I can investigate it thoroughly to find out who made it for you, don't worry I will return it promptly  :innocentwhistle: :biggrin:  :wink:

" Rich Cronk has been calling predators since the early 1980's. His first coyote was called with a cheap tape recorder he borrowed from one of his children. That first coyote was taken on first night out, and on the second stand. It was a moon lit night, and about four inches of fresh fallen snow would make the dark outline of a coyote show up well when it came out into the field after the rabbit he heard screaming.  The strategy was simple.  We stood in the shadows of the treeline while the cheap tape player sat about twenty yards out into the open field. The rabbit had only been singing for a few seconds when the coyote ran up and tried to take a bite out of the tape player. One shot from the ten gauge ended that coyote's career, and started a whole new career for Rich Cronk.  Rich has been hooked on coyote calling ever since that night.



Rich called and killed quite a few coyotes with that old tape player, but it wasn't long before he decided that  fooling coyotes with a mouth blown call would be more of a challenge. Rich's first mouth blown calls were of enclosed reed type long range calls from Burnham Brothers. The coyotes were easy to fool back then, says Rich. "The coyotes came like a dog to a whistle".  A month or so with the Burnham Brothers calls, Rich decided that it would be even more of a challenge if he were to make a call with his own hands and fool the coyotes with it. His first do it yourself call was made from a tine of an Iowa whitetail, and the reed was a JC products cottontail reed wedged inside the drilled out antler tine. That little call worked just fine, and it wasn't long before Rich was making calls for other folks as well.  Sometime in the late 1980's, Rich made the trip to Marble Falls, texas for a visit with the great Murry Burnham. Murry taught Rich how to make the lip squeak sound, and Rich presented Murry with the little deer antler call that he had made. Murry said that the deer antler call "sounds just like a snowshoe".

Rich is now an Internationally known call maker, having made calls for hunters all over the U.S., Canada, Australia and sweden. His biggest passion in life is calling predators. He would rather call coyotes than eat."

Jim,
Don't send it. It is a trick. He just wants your call and you will never see it again. If you do go to try to get it back you will be lost in the hills of the northeast and never heard from again.

The Trout
Amy Lowell - 1874-1925


          Naughty little speckled trout,
          Can't I coax you to come out?
          Is it such great fun to play
          In the water every day?

          Do you pull the Naiads' hair
          Hiding in the lilies there?
          Do you hunt for fishes' eggs,
          Or watch tadpoles grow their legs?

          Do the little trouts have school
          In some deep sun-glinted pool,
          And in recess play at tag
          Round that bed of purple flag?

          I have tried so hard to catch you,
          Hours and hours I've sat to watch you;
          But you never will come out,
          Naughty little speckled trout!

Jim, that sounds like Nasty has issued you a challenge.

Wait  :laf: hand poured flies?
Dont we tie flies? :readthis:

Post by: nastygunz on November 07, 2019, 10:33:47 PM
 That's why it would revolutionize fly fishing if you hand poured them instead of tied them!  :wink:
