Healthy Female Down

[fratri]

I got to the farm and was setup by 4:50 pm.. It was a crunchy loud walk in so I got all settled in and waited. No bush-line for me to hide in so I just sat in the middle of the field that had a high side so I wasn't silhouetted.. I waited about 15 minutes for things to settle down before I started to call.
I turned on my e-caller and decoy then I sent out a few dying rabbit sounds using my mouth calls. I waited a few minutes then started up my ecaller on a soft dying rabbit sound. After about 5-6 minutes of calling, rotating between my mouth calls and ecaller this female coyote appears on the edge of the bush.
She sits and waits (checking out the situation I guess).... After a few seconds she enters the field and begins walking to my right.... She seemed nervous so I only let her come in about 20 yds from the bush-line before I yelled out a WOLF sound to get her to stop. It was about a 150 yd shot. She spun a few times squirting out blood like crazy.

Well done again. Is it possible to hunt these all day at multiple spots? I notice mostly you go early morning and late afternoon.

Ya I would think you could hunt them all day. I have shot them at 11:30 am and at 1 in the afternoon. But as mid-day approaches I would think hunting in the bush would be more productive than hunting open fields at least in my area (farm houses, traffic noise etc...)..
I hunt when I can and it's usually mornings or late afternoons, besides, that's when they are most active, so I play the percentages

WTG again Frank, do you hunt the same farm or multiple farms in your area as it seems you have a lot of yotes in your area
