    Buy one shine it up and compare it to any other product without batteries. It will be a winner hands down.

    They work for me. This is my go to jig on Red Lake. Or any other stained water.

    I agree they glow like no tomorrow out of the box.

    As far as Red Lake Glow Red Genz worm…

    I’ve always wanted to but could never do it. Joel mentioned doing that in a post today and it got me thinking about it again! Any tips on how to do that? I can do it on my slate but would be very benificial to do it with a mouth call as well. Joel…you have any pointers? Anyone else? Bueller….Bueller??

    Use a call with fewer reeds and roll your tongue. It takes lots of practice!

    I’ve seen guys do it with their lips, and I think the soft, contented purrs/whines actually sound better when you vibrate your lips.

    However, I can’t seem to master doing it that way, and use the back of my throat/tongue to do it. Practice “gargling” without water in the back of your throat, and roll that northward towards the back of your tongue. Best way I can describe it.

    I know it’s in my throat, because after coming down with Strep on Monday, I still can’t purr. Hopefully that comes back before Monday when I hunt!!!

    I was also in the same boat. I could never purr with any diaphram call. I finnally found a call that I can purr with this season. It is wrapped in bright yellow tape and called a stagger 3. It worked so good when I was just looking I noticed a stagger 4 and bought it as well.
    I can make nice yelps, cutts and even purr (I can call like a champ in the car but with the pressure on I will dry up and choke on that darn call )
    The reeds on the call seem to vibrate just enough on the tip of my toung.
    I found the calls at a major fleet store in both Oakdale and Blaine.
    Now if I can only find the first one I bought. I don’t seem to notice much sound differences between other calls by the same maker.
    All the guys out for this first season are making me very envious…. I do what I can waiting for my chance to do the archery hunt in 1 month
    I spent $10 on black latex paint for the inside of my Eclipse blind—- so all you guys out there keep giving tips — some of us are taking notes.

    Good Luck with the purring….

    Here’s a link to one on ebay. It’s made by HS Strut. Is this what you’re talking about Steve?

    Yes it is the HS Stagger 3 and 4 both worked. something about the reed purred for me. I cannot get any other call to purr.
    Good Luck

    Like I said I would choke on the thing as the birds were comming in.

    i figured out how to do it last spring WHILE i was in the blind Its about gargling with your throat and lips like mentioned before. I hope i still can do it this year, i haven’t used a diaphram call since

    I can purr with my promos mouth call no problem. Hunting easterns in south Alabama, it’s a call vital to learn.
