Kee , I have watched you video several times . I have been tring to locate yots, for some time now I see their tracks and scat everywhere. After hearing to say to stay 20-30 min. after yep howling . I have been to locate several packs in my home area . I am a Foreman at a stripmine. I drive old reclame land and look for sighn. . It's funny how hard I have looked for these yots and they were under my nise I was now giveing them time to respond. thank you for the egreat tip.
 
Bronco,

Thats cool! Im glad the tip helped you out! We try to always hang out for 30 min or so after we yip howl. Sometimes they respond as soon as we howl and sometimes it is 20 min or more. Always good to hear that a tip from the video helped out! Let me know how you do on the one's you located.

Brent, when you yip howl and wait 30 minutes, do you yip howl occasionally during the 30 minutes or stay quiet for the 30 minutes?

Welcome back by the way!
 
Thanks for the welcome back! Had to take a day off for the kids before jumping back into the groove!


Sometimes I will yip howl again aftr the first 15 min but I would say most of the time we just set and wait. The reason they seem to do that is so they have time to re-locate to a safe zone or inside there home core area. But thats just my take on it, lord only knows for sure!

I've done the same since watching the video and have located some with my howler. What an awesome sound when they open up. Sounds like quite a commotion.
The one thing I have noticed is the answers I get are 3-5 hundred yards away or more. When I have gone to those spots to hunt, I howl and nothing responds. Do they tend to not answer if the "stranger" is close by and come in silent?
 
Brent, It worked! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif

My wife and kids and I were unloading groceries tonight and my howler was in the Blazer. So I picked it up and did some yip howls and when in the house with some groceries. Came back out for another load and the coyotes were going at it about a half mile away. Wife and kids got to here it all.

Thanks!

Brent,
I located them about 8:00 in the evening and tried hunting them the next evening right before dark. So I am actually hunting in the daylight.
 
They seem to come in silent most of the time here. Every once in awhile I get a answer while on the stand calling, but most of the time they just come in. When calling in the daytime. Night calling is a little different.

When you locate the coyotes at night. You still need to get in there and do some scouting, find there travel lanes and were they are holing up in the area. Howling to locate them just lets you know for fact that there are coyotes in the area, I still have a lot of leg work to do to get the right stand and get all the info I need to get in on them.

Howling for a group at sundown will get you closer to where they spend the day. When you locate them later in the night all it gives you is the area to start looking.

As a general rule a group controls a drainage. This drainage is their territory.They move about along the old fencerows, ditches , hollows etc. that all connect up and down this drainage. This is where our maps come into play.

Pin point where they were on your map of the area. It can be drawn up by hand or just a county road map you can get at the courthouse. Then go back during the day and drive around that area. Gain access to several farms in the area and go in and look for the sign .See if you can find how they got to the spot they howled from and work backwards toward the bedding area from there.Jimmie
