First time coyote hunting
«

I live on the peninsula out west, but will be traveling for work near Eprata end of Feb and thinking I can do a Fri-Sun coyote hunt. There is some BLM land adjacent to Ephrata I was thinking about getting into and using a foxpro to call em in. I have never done it before, but figured I'd give it a shot. Is my rudimentary plan sufficient? ha. Or does a guy need to be a bit more precise to find some success tagging a few coyotes? BLM make sense to y'all?
I'll be running my 223 bolt gun
Thanks for any input!

Be aware of where you are shooting and what hunting season is open and the rules would be my first advice.
I have had yote hunters lined up on prime bird hunting property during waterfowl season with a drop off and small lake below them. They pulled out when I was heading up the hill to them to have a discussion about their shooting lane background.
The only reason I knew they were there was I heard the dying rabbit call and glassed to see what was going on.

That time of year, forget the distress sounds, most of the time. Use coyote talk. And be stinghy with it. It’s the coyotes you don’t hear that are coming in. Give the stand a longer time.
Personally, I’d get out of town and do some hiking.

Loup Loup - Out of town east or west? Im just not finding a lot of public land outside of a few BLM chunks. West into the mountains yea... Guess I assumed the flats east of the mountains were going to be better for the coyotes.
GWP - yea, always. Unfortunate you had that experience. I appreciate that heads up. Can be a good reminder for guys coming into flat country that hunt mountain terrain most the time.
