just wondering
« on: May 23, 2010, 10:30:31 AM »
so the only times i hunted yotes was in the winter time but never did it in the spring or summer. thinking bout heading out today, is there like a usual time that they roam around like deer and elk? was thinking bout heading out bout 4pm and when night time starts to get closer hopfully they be roaming around for food. what u guys think?

I would guess, the closer to dusk or early morning, the better.

the evenings can be different every night sometimes i have them come in before its hardly getting dim and sometimes im sitting out there tel after 10:30 before they start howling, if i can wake up early enough i try to go in the morning, one other thing i start doing is try to find dens i know are being used and trying challenge barks or a pup in distress call, those moms will come running in pissed off

they are pretty active right now with pups to feed, so you could bump into them at any time. but generaly dawn and dusk are best.

yeah it depends this time of year if you are hunting for males or females also, both probly have a different schedule, nice cold cloudy days are probly the best alot of times i will catch males out around 9 - 11 in the morning coming out for a snack, sometimes i will also just drive lots of areas stop and glass an area occasionally if i see one ill get out and go set up on it

When the pups are out you can lay the hurt on them with the pup in dist call. they will run you over trying to find whats hurting there pup(I have been) :o

Yes and no. There are a lit of yotes out there the problem is a lot of them have been shot at and missed. best thing I can tell you is to get away from the roads and call. Start quite and work up louder, they can be sneaky as he'll out there so be ready for anything and stay dead still. I got ran over by one out there last nov but he got a 40gr vmax :chuckle:
