I have read various posts and watched you-tube videos about coyote hunting. I learn best when I am hands on and can ask questions.
Googling for "Guides" only brought up guides in Idaho or large game hunts. I like varmint hunting. If you know of / or are a knowledgeable guide for varmint / coyote hunting please let me know!
Thank you,

Sell it to the wife as a sun trip.
Or just post here in hunt swaps and offer to cover gas/hotel.

Anyone know of anybody doing guided coyote hunts around SW Washington or nearby? I'm in the Vancouver, WA area and I don't mind a reasonable drive to somewhere. I'm in a spot in my life where I have the time to go hunting again and I would like to have someone show me the ropes on coyote hunting. I've gone a couple times now with no luck and I'm out of touch with what and were people are going and gear they are using.

Used them a while back and it worked out well. Stayed in a nice, reasonably priced motel on US-97 for two nights and shopped at a great sporting-goods store a half mile mile away in Omak. Yes the drive was long, but we made that interesting with stops on the way.

In all seriousness, now's the time we settle down and let the yotes rest. They're paired up and about to have litters. We don't really get going until Oct. (Oct. - Feb.) For us, we let them rear their young and wait till it cools down. Sounds like others hunt in the summer - no thanks when it's 98F. Ask again in Sept...good luck regardless!

I've asked my buddies that I hunt with over here in E. Wash. Waiting to see what they say. We take beer and Long John Silvers as payment.Between now and may is the best time to hunt the yotes. You can take out eight with one shot

I’ve heard a lot about you and I’d love to get together and hunt with you someday. I am always wanting to learn new things about how to call coyots. We have a mutual friend, Jim Kennedy. Yes we are nightwalkers, lol. I have a fair bit of private property to hunt and am always finding new properties to hunt also. If you ever wanna go, feel free to PM me. I live in Okanogan and travel all over to kill um at night.

Jerry,Ahh yes Jim Kennedy. love that guy, He has become a pretty good caller, He showed me he really had a passion for calling when I took him on a guided hunt.perhaps some day we will be able to get together and call a few stands. :tup:

Well, I have several coyote hunts done now. Learning that the Wind and scent are a pain in the butt to work with lol. I've managed to get some coyotes coming in at 300 yards or so. Just a peek here and there and have had many call back and howl at me but I've not been able to get them to come in closer or leave the heave brush.
I hunt in a lot of timber in SW Washington and rarely have anything over 200-300 yards with most stands in the 100 yard range. Thank you for the feed back. I'm sorry for not replying sooner. I am still looking for someone with some experience to tag along with. As far as "Guide" goes I'm not going to be put out if we don't shoot anything. I've hunted and trapped in the past years so I'm not new to idea of not getting what I'm hunting for. I'm very happy to just learn how to pick a good stand and some calling techniques. I'm pretty easy going and looking at the long term benefit of learning the ropes.
I've hunted with a buddy every time and we often are not sure the best way to cover a given area. I think we end up making to much noise. The early mornings and long drives with no results are getting a bit tiresome though. Were both vets from different branches of service so we pass the time talking crap and passing insults back and forth. I would really like to shoot a coyote before he does! :D
