Johnsonburg, Pa.:  Foxes were the weigh-in harvests on Saturday at Rolfe Beagle Club’s Statewide Coyote and Fox Hunt or Trap, after a slight uptick in the weather.  Zachary Geyer of Ridgway brought his first harvest to the weigh station, a female red fox weighing in at 10.0#.  “The foxes were after our ducks and chickens, and I was finally able to stop the losses,” said Zach.  Zachary harvested the fox at 1:00 a.m. on Friday on private lands in Elk County.  Zach shoots a .222 rifle with a thermal scope.  He uses a Primos electronic call and for this particular fox, called it in with a “chicken in distress’ call.

Ab Aikens, from Emporium, also brought in a red fox, weighing in at 9.8# he had harvested Friday evening around 10:00 p.m.  The male fox was harvested on private lands in Cameron County.  Ab shoots a .22-.250 rifle with a thermal scope, and uses a FoxPro electronic call.
