[QUOTE="kill_goose, post: 459355, member: 30047"] Lots of good info here. Ill also add, if your call is one of those cheap pocket sized electronic units, you'd be better off spending $10-15 and getting a good open reed mouth call. Those cheaper, small electronic units are unimpressive and monotonous. 20 minutes is my time "base". But certain conditions may warrant a longer sit. Wide open country and dead calm conditions where I know my sound is carrying a long way, I may sit longer as a coyote coming from a long ways off needs more time to get there (and if you dont give him enough time, he may bust you walking back to the truck). Deep snow also warrants a little longer sit. Last year in a tournament, my partner sat a stand for a good half hour. I called a different spot. When coming to pick him up, I saw him walking back to the road, and sitting on a hill 600 yards out was a coyote. It took him probably 45 minutes or so to show up. So you just never know. You asked specifically about cattail sloughs. They hold a lot of coyotes in our country. At the same time, if they are extremely large, expansive cattail sloughs, I HATE calling them. Getting a coyote thats bedded for the day out of a huge patch of cattails is tough. If you know your going to be calling to big cover like this, try to hit it right away in the morning, or last thing in the evening. Try to get em while they are up and active. [/QUOTE]
