Fox Squirrels

[Chiflyguy]

We already got a boat full this trip...how about we get another trip setup? Oh, and plenty of fox squirrel on clinch mountain.... That is the hill between you and where we will be hunting... We will literally be at the base of clinch mountain.

Any plans for another trip?
I got Tennessee plates on my car now so I feel safe to park my car off the beaten path.

No sir, nothing yet. That extreme cold cancelled the first trip. His schedule and my schedule haven't been very compatible. I'm still wanting to get after them though. Maybe we can put something together in the very near future.

This fox squirrel showed up about 3 months ago and took up residence behind my shop, I have a shooting table about 25yds from the tree he is sitting in, every time I go out to sight a rifle in he will get on the same limb and start a growling sound then start barking at me. Look up close at the pic he has two white dots right above his eye's, pretty fox squirrel. He can be thankful that I don't care about killing fox squirrels.

Check this one out. I watched him from 100+ out, come up a tree line and get on this old elevated stand. I was in a ground bind about 20 yards away. He was definitely checking me out. Confident little buggers. There have been times where I thought I was going to have to defend myself while in a tree stand...

Lol, cool pic, yeah they can act aggressive at times.

Have only seen one in 20 years on my place.

Where I use to hunt in IL was covered up with them, mostly on the ground. Would be a nervous wreck at the end of day bow hunting because of them sounding just like deer in leaves

Seen a lot more fox than grays in Illinois.
Noisy!

Glad you got back across the mountain before it got slick. I've been on that thing with a sheet of ice on it...not fun.

Hey, this Monday not looking bad... weatherwise, and my wife is off work...think my daughter may be as well. Let me know your availability! Might be able to make it happen.

Where I use to hunt in Louisiana if you killed 6 fox squirrel at least 2 or 3 would be black.
