Well, we can't have a dog in this building, wish we could, but maybe I'll borrow one from the police dog academy up the road.

Well they never showed up lastnight and I was up late! I then checked at 7:00 this morning when the kids got up for school and the dead chicken was still out in the field bu one duck returned she apparently was the smartest hen and flew out of range of them Coyotes and returned home this morning.

Im actually aggrivated because now I have to wonder when they will be back again so Ill have to watch over the weekend and its dropping to 20 degrees so they will have to be moving to stay worm and looking for food in a big way.

Mack that electronic call looks interesting Im going to check into that thing its not to bad as far as price either.

I've been hunting them yots for over 30 yrs and what you have to do is; just out smart them, learn to think like them.

A electronic caller is the easiest approach in calling them if you have never tried to call them before. Early mornings, right at day light, is a good time to see them.

A coyote pup distress sound, should still work good at this time of year.

There are many electronic callers on market these days. They range anywhere from around $60 to $900. I just started using one a couple years ago and the darn thing is really slick. It has a remote, so it can be operated up to 100 yds away. You can program 32 different sounds on it.



Good Luck!!
