I'd like to know how to call one in. It seems like it would be a lot of fun.

alright heres what you do... are you ready for this... you go into the woods. with the best camo you have sit down . get ready . and say "HERE MR. COON." then start wistling.... works like a charm

on a more serious note. i have them comming in sometimes when i use a rodents distress call or a cottentail distress call, or even a coon distress call. you take your pick.

The best coon calling action will come from an ecaller with coon fight sounds. For the best results, set up close to, with-in 50 yards, a known den tree and turn it on and get ready for action. They can be called during daylight with this method. Coons seldom come to distress sounds, they will , BUT if you really want action to be consistant, ecaller with coon fight sounds is the ticket!!

take howlers advice over mine. i have never tried callin just have them come in. i would much rather use dogs on ringtails.
