Rain + calls

[outdoors crazy]

As I thought the rain was over this morning I was suprised by on more good shower. My glass call and sticks got wet and we're not performing. Any suggestions on calls that can withstand some water?

Carbon striker maybe?

I always carry sandpaper in case my call/striker gets wet and I need a quick solution.

That might've worked better than the wood ones as they soaked up any water that came down

Copper pot with carbon striker plays well when moist/damp. I don't know about soaking wet

I stick to mouth calls when it's raining.

If I know it's going to be wet I leave my custom calls and strikers at home, I am very particular about my calls and striker combos and won't jeopardize their sound by getting them wet. I also pack several gallon ziplocks in my vest for the unexpected shower.

I tried all the "wet" friendly calls, and they either didn't work, or sounded not up to my standards. I can do everything with a mouth call in order to kill a bird and it's a heck of a lot easier to manage on rainy days.

Mouth calls are your friend when its raining. My daughter did win a box call a couple of years ago that works when its wet.
