Default Calling in coyotes.

So since the season started this oct in the north east i've been out a few times (as well as before the season) and i've called in a few coyotes, but it has been relatively inconsistent. Now i know nothing is guaranteed however i feel like i'm doing something wrong.

My main question is how should i call, and by how i mean how long should i wait once i get to my stand before i start doing distress calls, how long should that last non-stop, if i do stop how long do i wait to start up, do i not start back up, how long after i stop a nonstop call do i wait in the same position before i move on to another location?

Basically i would really appreciate if someone were able to give me a run down of how they coyote hunt as in "get to location, start calling after 10 mins, call for 5 mins, wait 45 mins, if no action i leave. If there is action i use open reed howler to bark the yotes in" (this is all an example, not what i actually do).

I have a closed reed distress call, and an open reed howler, i typically get to my location, and wait about 10 mins before calling, i'll do the distress call for about 2 mins straight then stop and wait about 15 mins, then do the call again and repeat this for about 45 mins and if there has been no action i move on. Sometimes i'll do the distress call for 2 mins then when i finish wait 30 seconds and do a lone coyote howl then wait 10-15 mins and if there was no action i repeat the same sequence, after 45 mins if nothing i leave, but this method has brought me no luck.

Thanks.
