The Bulb Squeaker every new hunter needs to use one for main call

[uncle buck]

Seasoned hunters know how valuable  a tool the bulb  squeaker is...You can use it to call all predators in up to  500 yards away. Many of us start off calling with the bulb squeaker and end with it.. Maybe not on all stands but many times.. There have been times that nothing was coming to my mouth calling nor electronics.. I went to the bulb squeaker and that was what the doctor ordered...  I would like to say too that everyone once in awhile calling in a predator with a rabbit distress and going to the bulb squeaker made them hold up.. Other times they come running in.. So you just can't say it's a sure thing at times.  It all depends on the smarts of the animal...

My son and I have come up with a tactic...we both take bulb squeakers stand in line with the wind in our face.  We both have standing rifle rest and our rifles are in the rest.. Gun lights on and the lights on our head on.. With both start vigorous squeaking for about  5 minutes.. We have bagged many a red fox doing this now... Now we tried it with a new hunter with the three of us doing bulb squeaking and nothing came in.. Could be the greenie just doesn't have that vigorous squeak.  We don't do it like a field mouse would squeak.. you know just squeak squeak squeak..  IT SQUEAK SQUEAKS SQUEAK SQUEAK<<<<<<<<<SQUAK for a full 5 minutes... You know me ... I like to yank chain and I guess the reds freak out and just come a running... We have been shooting them at 40 yards doing this with the 17 Hornet and shotguns..

I actually just was getting ready to leave my set earlier, figured I try the bulb squeaker one more time. We'll it caught a red's attention just as he started to come into my decoy a car door slams with little kids yelling about half mile away. We'll that was all the fox needed to hear and he was out. I was pissed but that's hunting.  I know he's there now and I will be back for him

I've only ever hunted one coyote stand so far which means I really have no business replying.  What I wanted to tell you though is that on Varmint Al's website he has all those free sounds and that squeaker is one of them. I'll be putting that on my ecaller.

I bought a bulb squeaker back when I first got into predator hunting. As time went by and technology grew ecallers into what they are today. My little squeaker got put on a shelf to collect dust. I think I'll be dusting it off and carrying it with me in the future. UB, thanks for the reminder!

I actually put two in my pocket.  I switch back and forth .  It creates somewhat of a duet.

Love the bulb squeeker...It's my finishing call sometimes...when the Fox hangs out there...most of the time,I'll go to the bulb...and its works...Rusty

I keep one taped to the frame of my tripod,  start every stand with a bit of mouse...

The first two weeks of the season i hardly had to turn the call on at all, the primos buld squeeker and the one from Bee's O'Brien did the job and they came a running

I was hunting over snow conditions one Feb night... You didn't need a light it was so light out there... I was using my Rem 700 BDL 17 Rem.. I loaded the gun.. I had one of those cabelas heavy duty predator calling coveralls on with a little gray and snow covered on.. My bulb squeaker was in my pocket. As I turned and walked away from the vehicle the bulb squeaker in my tight pocket started to go "SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK!"   All of a sudden a red fox comes running down the county road right at me.. I was high up off the road so he sees me and he takes off across the field.. Being that I was high enough  I let loose with a fast shot at the fleeing red.. I think I shot at it with two rounds..  Of course I missed it.. he caught me with my pants down so speak... Now remember I just called this red fox in and the squeaker was in my pocket of my camo coveralls. So I do reload my shells so I reach down to pick up the fired brass.. My motion made my bulb  squeaker squeak again.. Guess what?  I called in another red fox with just picking up my brass... I missed him or her too.l.   So now when I do call I will put my squeaker in my pocket make low sounds of course take it out and hold it by my pant leg do some more squeaks, back into the pocket again more squeaks out of the pocket again.. more squeaks.. I have called in more red fox doing this technique.. Get yourself SOME not ONE good bulb squeakrs,,  Quakerboy , Primos, etc... Those little plastic ones inside of pet toys are ok and they work but you want to do some serious bulb  squeaking..  I have known new callers that say they are embarrassed because that the only way they can call coyotes in with a bulb squeaker and a sheet thrown over their shoulders...  Sept is a good time of the year to fool the young now grown pups with the bulb squeaker....However it's a  365 day a year call.. Believe me they can hear it real far away if it's not real windy at night time..

Uncle buck thag happens to me all the time. I have the squeaker in my pocket and I accidentally bump it and make it squeak. Now I never actually called one in like this but often wondered if I blew my cover. My first thoughts are always.. I'm made...because it always happens before I get to my stand

[uncle buck]

Yes you have to remain quiet and stealth. Lohman makes a bulb squeaker that you can push voice channel inside bulb to render  it silent. Learn to make your first stand just where it's legal. The call is the tool. Call them to you don't go after them. You go in to deep on your stand you scare them.

more than once I've bumped the bulb getting the tripod out of the truck and missed one that snuck in on me... when I do it now I set up the stand and be ready if one sneaks in while lm getting the rest of the mess out... it's amazing how little it takes to get one interested...

[Pa Goosehntr]

  or how little it takes to spook them 

[Rookie furtaker]

Maybe that's the issue I'm having?? Im going in to far and spooking them. I just always thought the farther I walk into the woods the better my chances of a k9 would be.

Always hunt your way in.  You never know where they are going to be.  If they sound off,  you can always sneek closer.
