    Help with calling coyotes

    Hey Guys, I need some help! We are covered up in coyotes, have already killed over half dozen this deer season while on stand. We have seen them chasing deer multiple times, see them all the time when checking feeders, cameras, etc. But, they won't respond to a call! I really want to thin them out before fawning season. I primarily have been using rabbit distress, coyote howls. I have a fox pro, and mouth calls, anyone have a special call or combo that really seems to work when nothing else will? Any help appreciated.

    Have you tried using any deer sounds since that is what they are killing?

      We laid coyotes down 2-3 nights a week when I was a kid. We always staked out a chicken when they quit coming to the rabbit call.

        Have tried deer distress a few times, maybe not enough to really see. May have to resort to "live" bait.

          Make sure when you call you have a good view. Most of the time a yote will try to circle downwind, so if you can catch them before this happens it will help. Try a ki-yi sound(injured coyote pup)

            That will work too..... When are you calling night or day? When you call are you using a decoy?

              Ive read distressed bird sounds work well. I just got a foxpro last week and tried it out this weekend, never had anything come in, but we were playing back and forth with another yote using a female challenge call, it was hilarious, we did this for at least 10 min, it just never got closer. I have also heard from other folks that calling coyotes in east texas is a lot tougher than say west texas because food isnt as scarce here, they dont mind passing up a meal if they arent hungry.

                i feel like the mornings are the best time to call, set up a moving decoy, and take your time between calls.

                lotsa good folk here that can help you out, Good Luck

                      Snares set along the fence line. Look for spots that they use to cross under.
                      I have had my best luck with a Scotts reed type call that has a bellows on it. I have called yos so close that they kicked rocks on me when they stopped and turned to run away. LOVE this call. It is a squealer type and you can really vary the vollume. I always start off slow and soft and pick up the volume and pace. I will call in one spot for 15 minutes minimum. I have always called during the day lights hours.

                        I always use a distress fawn bleat call. I see deer & I see Coyotes as well. I get very loud & aggressive, & yes, gettin down wind would help to your advantage.
