I went ice fishing and saw 3 coyotes on my way up on nearby private land. I went back the next day to surrounding public land and tried to call (FoxPro Hellfire). I did 4 stands and was skunked. The coyotes were responding to howls and locator calls though. I tried various rabbit distress calls but no animals came in. It was pretty cold (-15 F) when we arrived, and clear/sunny once the sun came up.
How long would you wait to hunt this same area again?
Besides wind direction (which was ok)- if you know there are coyotes in the area that will not come in to calls - what if anything would you do differently your second trip out?
Could it just be weather? A big storm had just gone through 2 days before so I figured they would be looking for a snack, but it was colder than I anticipated when I got there. The day before it had been 0 at sunrise and I expected it to be warmer, not colder.
