Coyotes in corn stalks
« on: August 25, 2007, 02:20:13 AM »
I am just heading out to call in a yote, my stand is in the intersection of four 12' wide tree lines, it is there for deer(my stand) but tonight I want to try an electronic caller I made so the tree stand it is.
So, the yotes, are they likely to walk the outside of a mature corn field or are that apt to run the outsides like most other animals?
My stand is in a corner, one side is bush, behind me is river and in front of me is one big field split in two by a row of trees, I want to drop my caller in that tree row 50 yards out, if they run the outside parts I will see them from everywhere, if they come through the corn I simply wont see them.

Pydpiper, the coyote or coyotes are more then likely going to try and wind you if they can. Pay attention to the downwind side of your stand.
If you plan on making just one stand from a tree, don't expect alot of action. You could get lucky and I hope you do, but the more stands you make in a day or night the better your odds.

Agreed with onecoyote on that wind and the number of stands. Dont try to hit the same location too many times, could be that you have some older wary customers in the area and you dont want to educate them by moving in & out of that same location too often.
If you are interested in the fur dont neglect those fields once they have been picked. The remaining stubble is a great place to lie on your belly out in the open with an eye on nearby wooded fingers or drainages that will make them feel safe to close in within rifle range.
