Looking to get out for Coyote this year... Im reading the abstracts and I cant seem to find any reg about wearing orange? Did I miss it or can we stay hidden?
You need orange only during shotgun deer season (i.e. Now & for another week). Then back to full camo.

Tonight should be good if the moon comes out. It is still full enough, and there is enough snow to light things up. Trouble is, I'm having trouble finding shotgun ammo. I know you can use slugs or buckshot during deer season, but I don't think at night. I really don't think a .22LR is enough unless you are within 20 yards and can nail a head shot. This all said, my neighbor said our deer spot has tons of coyote tracks. Of course, not tomorrow is Sunday, and Stupidchusetts doesn't allow Sunday hunting.
Thinking of trying one of those motion rabbit type decoys. Anyone ever use one?.
In MA, you have to take it to a state check station. After that, you could try to sell the pelt, or, as I plan to do, just bury the ****ing thing, or use it as bait to bring in the next one.
I know one guy that makes stew from the hind quarters. To me if you need to bury the taste of the meat in a stew with veggies and spices it's not worth eating.
Just read the abstract, so f'ing confusing... mentions handguns and rifles but now where they can be used, can we use buck shot or does it have to be bird shot < or = to .23, later on it does say slugs and buck shot can be used... of course nothing is CLEAR! Thanks
I don't know about that. Grilled or baked pork shoulder taste like shit. Slowly smoked for 10 hours, pulled, and doused in bbq sauce and it's pretty damn good.
This is pulled from Masswildlifeyou cannot use a shot gun to hunt coyotes.. As you cannot be in the woods with buck shot/ slugs unless its shotgun deer season period.. do not pass go yada yada yada
How is the coyote hunting in your neck of the woods? I'm been meaning to broaden my range.
I've seen a couple large ones on my road on the way to work in the morning. I haven't attempted to set up and call them yet.
