Yesterday I went to an area that I thought would have less hunting pressure, turns out there was more. I saw at least 3 other hunters in this new area. While I cannot be sure, I might have called to another hunter and then he replied with vocals. That was pretty disheartening and frankly I am becoming more and more discouraged. I have only called in coyotes once out of 50-60 stands our the years. My stand setup was pretty good yesterday.
From my reading, I understand that in high pressure areas, you need to switch to more coyote vocals. Is that correct? I believe I have been using prey distress too much in these areas. If coyote vocals are the way to go, then what is the proper sequence and types to use. I cannot imagine you just let a coyote locator to loop and loop, do you?
From my limited experience, I was thinking you try and tell a story to interest these more educated coyotes. Like a long howl, followed by some challs or even a yodel. I did buy some additional sounds from Foxpro, such as den heist and den mayhem. I only tried these once or twice, no luck. Since it is mating season now, wondering if female howls, yips, yodels might do the trick? I don't know.
Any help would be appreciated guys.
