BP - I was set up by 7pm on the edge of a field over loking a corn field. The wind was to my back. I had set up the speaker to my Johnny Walker digital game call about 15yds in front of me or as far as the wire would reach. Next to the speaker was my home made enticer decoy. At my sitting location, I had 2 Cass Creek calls, Predator and Predator II. Once situated, I did a sequence of 3 pup yips on the Cass Creek. I waited for about 5mins then did it again. After that sequence, I hit the distressed rodent 2-3 times on the Prey Master. Again watied a few minutes. While I was waiting I switched the card on the PM to the one with Coyote Howl.
I hit the Cass Creek for another sequence of 2-3 calls. In the Middle of that I let the howls twice. The whole time this was going on I thought I heard some soft growls behind me. After sitting for about 30-35mins. I was ready to move or leave because the sky was getting black from the storm clouds. Before I knew she came out of an openning to my left going down the break between the fields. She was limping and I knew she was one the ones my wifes Uncle saw. She was eyeing my decoy. At about 20-25yds I let my best friend, T/C Encore, bark. I jumped up and ran over to her, she tried to get up. So I pulled the hammer back and pulled the trigger, click. Oh *darn it*, I forgot to reload. I ran back to my pack reloaded and gave the fatal shot. I don't know if it was my calling, my decoy or being in the right place at the right time. But, it dosn't matter. I got my first coyote. I plan on hunting the property or the neighboring farm again in a few weeks. A friend has permission to on the property he is renting a house on for Coyotes. So, I might head to Berks as well.
