Anytime of day.
My Minaska came with 10 vocalizations. Agitated boar, and kitten distress produce the best for me.

He recently did an interview with the guys from TBR outdoors on calling coons.
If you haven't checked out these podcasts they are pretty good to listen to. Good interviews with alot of good info.

Here is another site with good sounds.

Post by: dirty.dan4 on November 13, 2009, 06:00:59 PM: I have always used my Primos Coon Call. Works great and its a blast!!! Keep a watchful eye out for coyotes, they come to the call too. All in all, lots of fun and a good way to stay sharp during the off season. Talking to some local farmers, you can get good hunting ground for the one that are a nuisance. Good Luck.
