Small Game, Predator and TrappingFrom shooting squirrels in your backyard to calling coyotes in Arizona. This forum now contains trapping information..
I've only called early mornings, evenings and after dark. I was wondering if anyone has tried calling during mid-day. I've seen it on videos but never heard of anyone doing it. thanks
When you start feeling like a mid day nap, the varmints are feeling the same way. They can be called in but not as often as at other hours. However a cool, cloudy or foggy day may produce action all day long.
I've called at all hours and it's always better when the animals are out and about. I have had success at noon but not as much as at other times. If one is going to be out all day why not try. Hawks are out all day and snag rabbits at any time so a coyote can hear a scream at any time. I had better luck in heavier cover at noon. That's where a hawk would find a rabbit so it made sense to me. The best day is when the barometer is dropping and a storm is moving in. Every animal is trying to get something in it's stomach before the storm. Like I said, if you are going to be out why not try?

Sometimes, coyotes are more active during mid-day than at any other time. This January, I saw more coyotes from 11 to 2 than at any other time of the day.

You can call coyotes at any time during the day. Ive called them in at around 2:00 pm but I have more success during the morning hours and I like staying out of the sun. But during the mid-day ive called in more fox than coyotes.
