I have called AZ, NV and Kalifornia. Kalifornia has as many coyotes as I've seen anywhere. Went out Wednesday and made 4 stands, got 6 in and killed 2. Went out today and called in 4 on 3 stands and killed 2 again. Hey Alaska Yoter, have you ever called and killed a coyote? Have you ever seen a coyote? I know theres alot of critters up there but do coyotes even exist in Alaska in any numbers?
I have to agree. The public land is endless. The majority of the state is either BLM or NF all open to hunting. Public land here is awesome. Only thing you really need private land for is hogs or turkey. If you live in the sierra marmot are unlimited take all year. Alturas area has beldings ground squirrel. Coyote are thick on every inch of this state. The desert is loaded with jacks. Get GPS hunting maps so u know you are on public land and use google earth to locate potential spots. The other thing you need is 4x4 and good boots to get away from the tree huggers. The chaparral has the thickest coyote populations for sure but its really thick and steep country so bring a shotty or low power scope on the rifle. If you don't have 4x4 then yeah, its all private land because almost anywhere that is flat is private. Join quail and upland wildlife foundation or quail unlimited. You will meet people who hunt all kinds of things and learn where the water sources are. In so cal there is also predator callers of orange county.
