I've been itching to do this (coyote hunting) for a few years and have picked up a few items over the past couple of years. I have a small electric call and one of those little quiver critter things and some predator attracting spray. I plan on picking up a good long range light for mounting on the rifle and one for scanning around at night (since I don't want to point the rifle at something until I've identified it but I could bend on that).
Has anyone had any/much success locally getting coyotes to respond to calls? I'm in a club over in Seminole and we have coyotes but they are pretty quite. I've heard that you can get a siren and ride around and get them to respond to help pinpoint their dens but I've got a pretty good idea where they are concentrated based on signs (scat and tracks). Every year a few are killed while deer hunting so I want to go out there either in the evenings or at night and see what kind of luck I can have.
I've read a bunch about how they respond to calls and usually enter downwind so I will keep that in mind when setting up. From what I've read, usually 2 hours in one spot is good then move on if they don't respond.
Anyone have any pointers?
