Calling in coyotes

[Wiscohunter1234]

How many different calling sounds do you play when setting for coyotes and night and how long do you normally sit for?

My apologies meant setting for coyotes at night not and!

As many as it takes to get them to come in....

I typically try two or three different sounds, and if I don't see anything after about 10-15 minutes, I move on to the next stand.

Depends on the area and pressure that year. Last year they were hunted hard. They were very slow to respond. This year they’re everywhere and very eager to come to the call.

Lots of variables come into play. How much land do you have to hunt? If you have a lot than short quick stands will stack the most coyotes.

If you are limited on land than make longer stands.

How many sounds? You have to trigger them. Food. Curiosity. Fights. Etc. I usually play 3ish sounds.

Anything specific or does it just depend on time of year?

I have a couple hundred as of right now trying to get permission on more, farmers seem to be happy to let you coyote hunt there land if somebody else isn’t already coyote hunting there!

Like dirty said, you have to trigger a response. Bird sounds, mouse squeaks, rabbit distress, coyote sounds, etc can all work. The best advice is to try and use sounds every other hunter isn't using.

Seems like usually no matter how long my set was it needed to be 30 seconds longer. lol Couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve jumped out of my skin because one howls close right as I’m starting my walk out!

definitely depends on time of year and responsiveness but I’d say I’m typically doing somewhere around 4 or 5 sounds during breeding season.
