Is it ok to start fig cuttings now?

I was walking to the bus one morning and saw two large fig limbs on the ground. I decided that if it was still there when I got home from work later that evening, I was going to grab a couple of branches to try rooting them. I now have 2 branches to try, but I don't know if this is a good time of year to start them.

I tried starting a small cutting earlier this year, from a different tree, after a storm broke a few branches off. It rooted, but then succumbed to mold. Also, it was a tiny cutting from new growth, I believe.

Thanks for any input!
