howler just about coverd it,the only thing i might add is when or if you happen to see them milling around you might want to concider not trying to stalk them.a coyote is very difficult to stalk up on,if this is what your doing then they very well might know what you are and what your up to before you start calling.once they have this knowlege they will not respond and very well may seem like there ignoring you.if you have areas where you know theres coyotes then before the hunt find and set up stands in locations with the wind in your favor.when entering these areas to hunt go in very quietly and directly to your already scouted stand site ans sit down.wait a few minutes for things to settle down and then begin calling.try it this way and see what happens.
