Got an RNT Quackhead and after about 5 minutes of blowing it starts sticking. Saliva is causing the reed to stick to the sounding board and you can't even get any air through. Anybody had a similar problem? Is this something that is typical of this type of call (it is J-frame)?

To their credit, RNT says to just send it back and they will try to fix it promptly.

Try replacing the cork in your call if that does not work you can try rainx on your tone board and reed. it will work to some extent, but it is best to learn spit controle I have heard some say to lift the tip of the toungue on the inhail. It helps me some.

I have a Big Guys Best duck call and it has spit grooves in the tone board. Maybe you should see if you can find a call with spit grooves.

If it's a double reed, I don't think they put spit grooves in them.

The other thing to remember is that your blowing 98 degree air into a much cooler call....all calls are going to have condensation..........it sounds like your spitting to much into the call....
