Title: Best wet weather pot surface and striker
Post by: Fl strutter on October 20, 2018, 10:19:28 AM
What do yall use on most wet mornings or rainy days? I have crystal and aluminum calls but need to get a good wet weather striker I guess. Any suggestions?

I am sure some custom guys could make you one but for the money a mystic wet weather 3 pack at MidWest turkey call are pretty good. I especially like the aluminum rod striker and the fatter carbon striker that comes with it, the skinny carbon one works but I prefer the other 2 more. Other guys make a aluminum striker also I know John Sinclair and Prairie game calls has them but I don't have experience with them but sure they are good . Your surfaces will work fine on your pots, but it might make the pots themselves swell unless they are plastic or synthetic pots. I have a Yingling waterproof crystal and a Chris Brumfiel ceramic acrylic pot for wet weather

Yea I have acrylic pots. May look into a all weather striker. Here in north FL the humidity is horrible.

 Mike Yingling's  Fiber Rod striker is a good all weather striker.

I have a Yingling Carbon striker that I tested under the faucet with a Madd Super Crystal and it worked wonderfully even when the water was running on the call full blast.

I will tell you what, shoot me your address in a PM and I will send you a Mike Yingling striker for wet weather. I will not be able to send it until the third though, that is when I get paid again. Edit: Here is video of it working under the faucet. I should have agitated the call first but to late now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEcEN8JNCb0&feature=youtu.be

x2 on this one.  The public land birds here in Michigan couldn't get enough of this one last Spring.  Even used it on days where a wet weather call wasn't necessary.

You'll be surprised how good the Enticer Silver thunder extreme is. Hate to say this but the demos are very dif than the way most guys play. Call sounds fantastic. First thing I did once I received it was run it under a faucet and it ran well

  Any Pot Call will run wet, you just need a proper striker, I prefer the carbon. They run very well
Dry also.

Yep. It will run a wet slate, and sounds pretty good.

This is the correct answer. That's a great call in any weather. I keep one in my vest.
