[QUOTE="CNY Yote Hunter, post: 2227311, member: 109650"] I didn’t read through all the posts but one question I have is are you hunting at day or night for them? Coyotes at night tend to be a little bolder than daytime in my experience. It is very rare to get a dog in on a call during the day for me. The only time I’ve had any luck is when I play a woodpecker distress or ranting red bird with a decoy attached to the caller. I turn the call on and leave it on, sometimes for up to an hour before i see a dog coming in. Not sure if it’s cause they are layed up during the day and hesitant to get up to investigate or if it takes them that much longer to navigate to the call but it usually always produces results. -Chicken scraps usually get the best of all of them.
