First Fox of the year

Conditions were not the greatest last night, but the night
before I heard several coons fighting down by the creek at the
lease. Some of the other guys and I got to talking about how
they had never seen calling work. Despite the full moon and no
wind or clouds, I thought I would give it a try since the
animals seemed to be pretty active. Our first set was
disappointing it was down by the creek where all of the activity
was the night before, we then went to a small flat and called
for about 20 minutes and saw nothing. I put the call away, we
were talking about the conditions, I was felling pretty bad
about dragging them out for another disappointing experience and
decided to call it a day. I shined the light one last time and
there he was, I was more than a little surprised, as we were not
being quiet, and almost let him get away as I "forgot" to turn
the safety off. Good thing no one has called the area in over 10
years he had no idea what we were and was just standing there
about 20 yards away and waited patiently for me to get my act
together and make the shot. That livened everyone up, and we
tried a couple of more sets with no luck, the a small front blew
in, and we called it a night. This new lease is going to be fun.

I do not think so, and have a more exotic idea.
