You can spotlight and hunt yotes at night here in Illinois but only during the red & grey fox season. Not sure if you can use a bow though.....never really thought about that. I'm pretty sure that it's illegal to spotlight deer any time b/c they consider it to be harassing game.

If you're doing research just go to IDNR website for the states you're interested in and I'm sure they will all have the regulations listed....this might help you for what you're looking for.

In Maine you can spot-light deer just to look at them, but not during the deer hunting season.

As Adams said, you can get a permit to hunt coyotes with a light at night, (I do) but this is only during January, February, March and April.

Appreciate all the help guys.

In Vermont you can hunt yotes at night w/ a spotlight.
