Look thru the archives of this forum for some great information... provided by one of the best daytime coon callers I know.

It takes a mighty fine caller to call a coon out of his sleep and into the open. I've called several with my old Timothy Ball coon squaller. I've walked them right out of a tree with it before with hounds waiting on them at the bottom of the tree. I never understood why they would do that.

Get a Minaska Game Caller, thats what I use. They have lots of coon sounds. The coons come to fight and they don't mess around they come pretty quick. The first time I used my call I got 8 coons to come out of one cottonwood tree in about 30 seconds. What a ball! Then I went down the creek 75 yards to another hollow tree and got 2 more to come out. Ten coons in 20 minutes. It doesn't always happen that way but they are a lot easier to call than cats or coyotes and a whole lot of fun. Great way to start kids hunting!! Mike

Which sounds do you like to use?? And what time of day are you doing this. Thanks, Tom.
