Get into your spot in the dark, wait till sunrise and call every 10 minutes... until you are too cold to move or 10am..... then call from 4pm till dark.....
When your calling an echo is really handy.... high ground calling to low ground as well......
As far as where to find them.... they can be anywhere.. high up, low down, timber, swamps or cutblocks...... Find tracks.. go from there.... and remember, they are funkin huge so don't be walking a long long way off a road...
