Last Day Foxes at Rolfe Beagle Club’s Coyote and Fox Hunt or Trap
Johnsonburg, Pa.: Josh Bizzak out of Wilcox and Paul Costanzo from Ridgway helped fill out a busy last day at Rolfe Beagle Club’s Coyote and Fox Hunt or Trap by bringing in foxes to the weigh station.
Josh Bizzak hunts with red lights, an electronic call, and shoots a .17 Hornet. He harvested two gray foxes, both females, at 1:00 am Saturday morning. One tipped the scale at 7.4# and the second one weighed 8.6#. “I harvested one and was able to call the second one back,” said Josh. Josh was hunting private lands in Elk County. At a later stand in the morning, Josh was able to call in a 12.4# male near 4:30 am.
Paul Costanzo was hunting near Johnsonburg Friday evening and harvested two foxes on private lands in Elk County. The female red fox weighed in at 9.4# and the female gray fox weighed in at 10.0#. Both foxes were harvested with a .204 rifle, and Paul uses both electronic and hand calls.
Hunters are reminded that Rolfe Beagle Club will be offering their 10-day coyote/crow hunt from August 28 thru 6:00 p.m. on September 6, bracketing Labor Day.
