WestchesterBowman Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Looking to get out tomorrow or over the weekend. Stewart is now closed to vehicular traffic so I'd like to cover some ground on foot. Don't have much experience but really want to give it a shot. Any experienced predator hunters want to show a new guy the ropes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BizCT Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I can't make it, but I heard a lot of DEP lands in Putnam have good coyote populations and a closer drive for you. With deer season over in Putnam, you can use a rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues. The few times I went at night, I put a note on my dashboard saying I was hunting coyotes/fox/bobcat at night so that someone wouldn't think there was a hunter injured somewhere in the woods or something.

Elmo Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 We did call in one according to Denny but magnumhunt and I didn't see it. Have only been back to Stewart twice since then so I don't know if there are still a bunch there or not.

Two Track Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Elmo, Not sure of exact location, but one hunter I spoke with last year (fall 2103) kicked up a pack a coyotes in Sterling Forest on the west side of East Mombasha Road. Said they were near the top on the mountain there. I saw some large canine tracks this fall around Wildcat Mountain trail, not sure if coyote or dog as I was looking for deer at the time. That is only a couple miles from where the other hunter kicked up coyotes hunting season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no sign of coyotes either coming in to the call or tracks in the snow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
