Coyote Hunting in brenham

[Yoteman]

I just got some property in brenham about 2 years ago and started hunting right away. The main thing I'm having trouble with are the coyotes. It seems like they are nearly impossible to be called here. I have called in only 3 coyotes this whole time. I don't know what the Problem is so I was wondering if anyone else lives near brenham and has this problem? I usually use hand calls but I have used electronic ones as well. Another thing is I know it's not that I'm bad at calling because I've called and killed yotes and cats in south Texas before. 
Maybe the coyotes here are abnormally smart? I hope not.. Hopefully there's something to it

I live in Brenham and have hunted Washington County all of my life. Depending on your area, coyotes here have most likely been called before, therefore are very wary. What type of property do you have , heavily wooded, open etc?  One thing that also separates us from South Texas is the yotes are not as hungry. We have an abundant supply of food here.  Give me some particulars and I may have a few more answers for you.

Our property is moslty open feilds, there are some wooded areas and thick brush.  There is a creek that runs through it called New Years creek as well.  Our neighbor told us that last deer season he shot about 20 coyotes without even calling them. Maybe he put a dent in the population? We didnt even see any during deer season. BUT we did see a bobcat..

Yoteman,

Being mostly open, you will need to catch the yotes when they are in the area. Try to call closer to the creek and wooded areas. If nothing comes in with 10 minutes move to the other corner of the wooded area. Coyotes move around and you need to be fairly close to them when calling.  So if they are not on the area, no coyotes.  Don't give up, with the New Years creek and some woods, you will have coyotes and they will come in. 

Look for signs and keep some sort of record as how often you see the signs.  This will give you some idea of when they are in the area. With summer on its way, they are going to be hungry and moving alot more. Keep us posted...

Thanks, I was kind of figuring that they just had to be in the area because two of the times Ive called them in I spotlighted them first. I'll wait until the fall to start yote hunting again because of all of the grass hoppers. I'll have to stick with the hogs for now
