Re: new from Lake Elsinore
Everything the land has to offer: Dove, quail, pigeon, crow, squirrel, cottontail, jackrabbit, coyote, fox, bobcat. Got a spot or two with weasels. Done a lot of scouting in D15 for deer and always keep a watchful eye for pig signs. That's what I "hunt' for. I don't normally get the quantity the majority on this site get due to the junk availability of hunting spots by us. Everything is overrun with joggers/hikers, offroaders, rec shooters, and trash (people and garbage).
Will hunt Must travel!

Nice...I have only hunted Coyote so far and managed to put one down on my first time out, but not much luck lately, been scouting out some more spots but not much luck......the 1 spot i have (and where i got my 1st coyote) is only 15 min from my house,

Re: new from Lake Elsinore
Cool man. I've been coyote hunting upwards of 40 times. My first time out with my hunting partner and he bagged one. Since then, we've seen a few but didn't have shots and the majority of the time, we'll get responses, but nothing will come in. I've been JONZ'N to bag my first one.

Re: new from Lake Elsinore
right now the coyotes are in breeding season. Use howls and coyote in distress calls. They work a lot better then your regular animal distress.briantb said:

Re: new from Lake Elsinore
Been trying locally more than anything else. The problem with local is the small areas and the high counts of hikers, off roaders, and recreational shooters. They spook the dogs more often than not. Sucks when you're working stands and getting responses and some dip$hit comes flying by on a dirt bike. No ill will on their part but it kills me still.

Re: new from Lake Elsinore
Yeah, that's the best way to go after them in our area. You get like a 1 hour window on the weekend before people start showing up scoffing at you for sitting there with a gun in your hands or being as loud as they can. Had a jogger go past me the other day and startled me cuz he came out of nowhere... he looked at me and said "are you going to shoot me". I wanted to say "Yes, for asking an idiotic question like that", but knew better not to.

Re: new from Lake Elsinore
I was just talking to my hunting partner about that today actually. Planning on running a higher pitch pup call to grab attention without scaring anything off, then an old male and a female distress...
