We went out calling yesterday and had some ideal set-ups where we spotted coyotes in the distance with binoculars, and then snuck up to within 5-600 yards of them before calling. They had no idea we were around, and were just doing there thing mousing out in the fields and bottoms.
I know that they were hearing our calls because they would stop what they were doing and look our direction. As soon as the calling sequence was over they would go right back to hunting. My biggest question is, is it normal for a majority of the coyotes that you call to to simply ignore the calls? And if so why?
All that we could think is that these coyotes must have had plenty of food and no reason to spend the extra energy to come to the calls. We are going back out on Monday and I was hoping that you guys could give me some advice on getting some more of these dogs in, or just some insight on this situation. Having coyotes spotted on a set-up just seems like to valuable of a situation to not capitalize on more often.
Thanks in advance!!
