Try heading north of the tower until you get to the top of the hill just south of the lake and use your caller to lure one down to you.

This tower is a bit at the edge of the blacktail population. You will rarely find them there at the beginning of the hunt. Some ideas:

1. While you are coming from tower 7, you can lure some along.

2 You can spook them in this direction. Then wait until one recovers and calls, and spook it again until it is near the tower. This is an efficient way to move animals fast in one direction, but it is a bit random whether they run straight away from you. Try to keep them along the coastline on the west so they cannot run north again. Eventually you get them near the tower.

3. Fast travel to the tower 17 after having completed tower 7 and keep calling.

Good luck.

Wow, EW changed this mission to make it easier!

Getting Serious
Description
Harvest a Blacktail from Tower 8 on Whitehart Island
Harvest a Blacktail from Tower 6 on Whitehart Island during the same hunt

You no longer have to try and lure a Blacktail down to Tower 17. I never saw any announcement on this so this was quite a surprise to see this change
