A couple buddies and I are headed over east tomorrow to try and shoot a few dogs, was just wondering if anyone has any helpful tips would be much appreciated, also was wondering if anyone has hunted quilimene (sorry if I spelled it wrong) or Yakima area or would give us an idea on where to go, thanks all info very much appreciated!

PM sent.

Hopefully the wind will die down for you. Coyote vocals should get you some responses this time of year for sure.
-
What kind of coyote vocals would you recommend? I have a foxpro and just picked up the foxpro black jack tonight... And might give it a shot outside the closed areas just don't want to risk an area we don't 100% know and go into the closed areas ya know!
-
Oh ok cool Diddnt know that, just really getting into coyote hunting this year have don't it before just haven't been big into it, but want to get better at during the off season haha
-
Challenge howls will work well this time of year. They are or already have turf staked out and they don't like company. A landowner called me tonight and said there was 3 out in there field this morning fighting like mad. So I think some challenge howls when this wind lays down will seal the deal.
-
Was thinking about getting a howler but ended up getting the foxpro blackjack and don't have any challenge calls on my foxpro but one of my buddies might have one will have to give it a try, I'm already not going to sleep as it is haha, thanks for the info! We will try it all!

Wenas never disappoints! Many green dot roads and feeding station also. U can get there from Yakima or elendsburg. Depending where u coming from. Hit the hills. I always used a rabbit call there.
Bring a gazetteer and look up wenas lake.
Like I said. Plenty of public land n dogs.
-
ellensburg side of wenas was a bust last weekend for me and some buds. But we were right in the thick of the snow storm. Should be pretty good hunting there now! Get some for me!
-
Thanks again for all the help, think we're gonna check out the wenas area, McCRIZZLEY I just sent ya a PM! And thanks again Whitehunter, hope my new blackjack decoy and rabbit calls workout!!!!
-
Keep us updated with a story and some pictures!
-
Will do for sure!!! Going to be a blast no matter what!!!
-
So how was it?
-
Sorry Diddnt get back to you all, had a blast learning new country, only saw 1 dog and it was running thru a farmers field, Diddnt ask because wanted to get out and hunt haha, but otherwise that was the only dog seen saw a bunch of elk though but hope we have more luck next time!
-
did you spend most of your time in the wenas?
-
Yes we did, did a stand in Quilomene and did some lookin around out there too, just parked the truck and set out on foot, hopefully sometime soon we will start killin em haha
-
Still quite a bit of snow up there?
-
We Diddnt get into any snow at all
-
I will be in the elk heights area hunting dogs. So I should use coyote howl or yeps to call them in? Scouting for turkey too

Rainier training area .You need to get a pass and watch a safety movie but it's worth it.We average 10-12 per day just glassing no calling.Huge bucks in there also.Hunt along the river and shots can be 2-300 yards AR-15 is the ticket.
-
Are you talking about the JBLM Yakima Training Center... or is there a Rainier TA also?
