Not exactly true. They are worth something. Just don't shoot or trap them before prime. You may not get 100.00 dollar bill for one like in Montana or Alberta at a fur auction. I like waiting until last week of November hides will be prime. Some people will be worried about the guard hairs, but I don't. I have had folks look at the hides and asked if I got the coyotes in eastern WA. but I don't think they knew a lot about yotes.
Also, don't just focus on fur sales. there is a market for wall hangings. According to my newest Moyle Mink & Tannery pamphlet received two days ago getting one tanned with cost you 32.00, you charge 150.00 for it. They look great by themselves or next to a deer or elk rack. Tanning yourself is cheaper and more of a pain in the butt, but with Moyle is no hassle. This idea of wall hangings is not new. I have driven back an fourth to Alaska and a few times and Road Houses would have furs for sale and for example an untanned fox would go for 125.00. I had a traditional archery guy wanted one for a quiver. A neighbor of mine who is in to muzzle loaders gets coyote faces to make stuff out of. I once traded a fox in the round for a 410. shotgun, but that was back in the day

Find some clear cuts on the other side of the Hood Canal and try fawn distress call.

Shot a coyote tonight. Hit it at least once, tracked a blood trail for about a mile in the dark and then had to call it off and head back home. So no recovery :bash: I'm pretty sure it's down though. Was finding 2" diameter blood spots about every 100-200 feet.

Shot broke way too far forward.

First one came in solo early this AM (note the frost on him). The 243 shooting 55 gr Sierra over Varget somewhere around 3,800 fps. Broadside shot. No exit and will have to skin to find the entrance.
Second was part of a pair. That one was facing me at the shot.
Bang Flops- Like lightning, never heard the thunder. I'm liking these 55's.

Any tips for hunting coyote not next to Cows, so I’m less reliant on cow fields?
We started going once a year to help the deer, pheasant, quail, etc population numbers.

Thanks

Thanks. It's the Megaorei 2 night vision scope recorder. I purchased on ebay for about $100 from China. Took about a month or two till it arrived (a year ago). In that video, instead of the little IR illuminator that comes with the kit, I was using a larger T50 IR illuminator. The scope it was mounted to is a Leapers 4-16x50mm. I use the Megaorei and a couple other similar nightvision setups on a few different guns. Some scopes work better than others with these kits. Some scopes have IR blocking lens coatings, which doesn't help when you are trying to pick up IR wavelengths through the scope. (I have a vortex crossfire 3-12x56 that hardly lets any IR through it)
There's a few quirks with the setup i'm using, but it works for me and it was pretty cheap.

Between myself and my daughter we are only at 16 coyotes for the year so far. Typically we are in the 30’s by now.

I'm super new (haven't even gone out yet, just got my license) one of the biggest things I'm worried about is property. Is there anywhere on the SW side that I'm able to hunt? I'm willing to drive a couple hours north or east but just want to make sure I'm not on any spot I'm not supposed to be. Any good beginner spots too? Thanks all!Onx would be your best friend.
DNR site map shows all stateland in the state.
Your county assesser may have a map site to check for public land.
WDFW may have a map site.
When it comes to coyote ,your just looking for public land.
Cause more than likely your gonna find coyote just about anywhere in the state on or near public land.
