And No 6mm if I want that I’ll go better at 6.5.

I saw tracks of a bitch already with pups so I suppose they are gearing up for a big season this year having early pups
bit different to a full blood dingo

I've got the "Wildfire" and found some of the US calls on it not much use at all, like the Deer, Bear etc. The bird calls are good as is the wolf and some coyote. The group coyote calls I'm not too keen on and I've also downloaded a few farmyard animal calls as well.
FoxBusters have a great bird call and works well for cats, foxes and dogs.
In my area there is no deer so these might work elsewhere.
I find that the call can be set up upwind and away from your hide and this helps keep the dogs and foxes and cats attention on the call and away from you.
I also find that a fox whistle works well too.
The calls are not cheap but if your getting a bounty that'll help - none over here.
Cheers,
