Yote hunting

i am gonna go out soon when the weather gets colder. I was wondering how long i should call with my squaller at one time and how much time that i should wait between the calls. and should i start off quiet if by chance there is a yote close by? and the darkness of night is the best time right if i am going by myself? thanks.

Ok i wont be much help on this because i dont even know or heard of a yote before. Isn' t that something related to a squirriel or something?

Anywhere from 15-20 seconds to a couple minutes works for me and wait maybe 2 to 6 minutes between. Unless you can see everything around you starting quite is indeed a good idea. I' ve never been calling at night so I can' t say about that. Remember you' re trying to mimic a hurt animal, not a digitally programmed machine that sets even intervals, vary it up, keep the coyotes guessing, and whatever you do, call with PASSION! Feel the pain![:-]

How do you plan on seeing them at night unless you plan on using nightvision gear? Hunting at night is legal, but spotlighting or the use of any artificial light to hunt is illegal in Iowa.

lol. Ok thanks. I was curious about that because that is the first time i heard the term yote in relation of it being a Coyote. I usually just call them Coys but i think i like the term Yote better[:-]
