My understanding is that there are quite a few coyotes even in the Issaquah (Tiger Mts) area. My friend's chicken coups are raided often by them. The only hairy thing is the population density of the area. Might need to shoot towards the mountains instead of away.

Make sure you see the tracks!

the 'coons take a lot of chickens for sure....but I had one coyote that knew we left the house to take the boys to school...neighbor say it making the loop and told me when it was happening...

A coyote with a habit is a dead coyote...
Of sorrow and sickness I've known on my way,
But I'm old and I'm nervis,
I'm cast from the Service,
And all I deserve is a shillin' a day.

Anyone ever go after yotes with a Bow?  I saw it on Arrow Affliction once, and they didn't have any luck.  I guess they are too keen to come withing 40 or 50 yds.  That could be fun to give it a try...

They pick up movement real quick! I want one with my bow so i can say i have the coyote trifecta! Rifle Shotgun Bow... I think you got to call them from a tree stand on the westside.  :twocents:

Decoy - use a rabbit decoy, it may help get them in closer. It does for me, I've got them inside 10yds more than once. Next I want to use a pistol for my 'trifecta' (rifle, shotgun, pistol) since I dont shoot a bow.
I aint superstitious - cuz its bad luck!
