So a buddy and I are going out for our first coyote hunt this weekend. I'm taking my new foxpro call and decoy out tomorrow and it's looking like it will be raining tomorrow. Anyone have any luck hunting coyotes here on the westside when it is raining? We plan on setting up early before sunrise, but we are unsure of how active the dogs will be in the rain. Any help or advice is appreciated. Thanks

Called one in the rain but never saw it(WE saw tracks in a draw 75yds from where we were).. It was only time I have ever been calling. So yep go kill um.

Try and keep your foxpro dry (i.e. cover with a plastic bag). I have never had much luck in the rain, but if a coyote in Western Wa waited until it wasn't raining to be out looking for food it would starve :chuckle: so they must be out at sometime during the rain (provided it isn't flat out pouring).

:) :)go get em, rain helps cover your approach. They come in fine, since there are two shooters go a shotgun and rifle, call quiet for 5-10 mins then go loud.

Ive got them in the rain, the sun, the snow, the morning, middle of the day, and the evening.

Anyone use a ground blind to hunt coyotes? Beeter luck? I am debating if I should bring it or not.

You want the minimum amount of exposure, movement, and sound when getting set-up to call coyotes. It is less about camo, and more about stealth. So, leave the blind at home and sit in the shade of a tree or bush.
