Howdy all-

Newbie in the Eburg area looking for some info/decent spots around Eburg to try my hand at coyote hunting. A buddy of mine and I usually hit up the Durr road area for target shooting/upland stuff and were wondering if there are any decent coyote areas around worth checking out. We've been up in the LT Murray area, but haven't really been looking for coyotes. Any thoughts?

:)Loads of people in the Wenas, Durr Rd, Sheep company road areas. I have pretty much given up there. There are yotes there, night hunting might be better. This year I got one in the pheasent plant area south of Tumwater canyon, and 1 just on the south side of the canyon by the antennas. Try the Yakima training area, and north of Vantage in Clockam and Quillamene. (spelling?) over towards Bluette pass has some great areas.
Good luck!
Carl

I live In Eburg and you can go anywhere around here to kill dogs, But the best places are the ones with the least amount of traffic Im a little cheap when it comes to giving away Info but do a little diggin and youll find a spot. Good Luck

Too Cold!? Right now is the best time to kill anything. Me and my buddies were out this weekend too and rewarded with two raccoons and two Bobs, try finding that at the Tav!

How'd you get two coons and two bobs?

A coyote at the tavern usually results in constant ribbing from your buddies for the rest of your life.

yeah- no need to post pics of the coyotes you bagged at the tav.

True that. But if you come across some cougars, now there's something to share with your buddies!

Man, all I ever found at the tavern was a bunch of dawgs and bitches in heat.

Hi hillbilly_hippo!
There's quite a few yotes in the foothills northeast & east of Ellensburg.Once you find a safe place to hunt try hunting @ night!
calls/spotlight are effective! watch out for the "big kitties"

Good luck,Dano

Wacoyotehunter, do you mean what method did we use to get them. Or where?

WAcoyotehunter · « **Reply #13 on:** January 30, 2008, 08:39:42 AM »

Method? Did you call them in?
I know better than to ask where

In the woods...by a tree..

Lonesomegunner · « **Reply #14 on:** January 30, 2008, 08:45:22 AM »

WAcoyotehunter · « **Reply #15 on:** January 30, 2008, 08:49:39 AM »

boneaddict · « **Reply #16 on:** January 30, 2008, 08:49:59 AM »

There are tons of dogs to be had, pretty much anywhere you go from Ellensburg. They are well trained though.

Lonesomegunner · « **Reply #17 on:** January 30, 2008, 09:42:14 AM »

Lonesomegunner · « **Reply #19 on:** January 30, 2008, 01:10:01 PM »

Not on my dead body would I tell where my good spot is. I was gonna send him to Lower Crab Creek seen alot of yotes and alot of coons when we were duck hunting this year.

Heh, sorry for the long-ass delay in answering, I've been away from the forum for quite some time!

Thanks for all the info, I've got a few places I'm thinking of checking out soon.

boneaddict · « **Reply #21 on:** February 02, 2008, 07:01:20 PM »

Saw three where the freeway takes off up the hill. Is it thorton road, Thrapp rd...something like that. All three standing right out in the open.
