[QUOTE="dogz, post: 2348704, member: 5429"] A couple thoughts on this nice Turkey day. More than likely every direction you go from Rapid will have yotes in the area. That said in my experience you need to call in a area that has yotes, then you need to get into your calling stand undetected by wind and sight. For me the best stand of the day has historically been the first one of the day right at sunrise. I go in during the dark and try to use the wind the best I can. I like to start my first calling sequence with a volume that I am barely able to hear. If the yotes are in shooting range, they'll easily be able to hear it. Back in the 70's when I first started calling I thought I had to be loud and aggressive from the get go, and blew out a lot a yotes. If I can stand it, I like to remain on my stand for a time 30 minutes, I time it as I'm a bit impatient and if I actually run a clock I can stay in place as long as I haven't turned into a popsicle....:) I'm for betting the yotes in your area are fairly call educated. So I'd encourage you to get as far away from town as you can. I'd bet that the further out you get (starting at a hour out) the better your calling will be. As far as calls go, go to the stores and see what calls they carry and which one's they're out of. That'll tell you which ones people around your area are using, as will asking around. Then...........don't buy those calls, find one's that aren't carried locally. IMO this is very important. You can use E calls, the best thing about them is having a remote so you sit a ways away.
