There are two excellent techniques for hunting wolves and coyotes: getting on top of a hill and spotting wolves with good optics; sitting in a likely area of travel and calling with a call imitating either prey or a competing predator. Entringer had brought a FoxPro electronic call, which had not only raven and magpie bird calls, rabbit screams, various coyote calls, but also the rendition of wolves on a kill. Armed with an M&P 15 .223, and a .243 and .260 Nosler in bolt-action rifles, we took our vantage point and looked out over the mixture of spruce, birch, willows and wide open muskeg. When calling coyotes, the rule is pretty much to call for 15 minutes and then move on if you haven’t seen anything. Targeting wolves, it’s better to call a little bit longer, say up to 45 minutes.

In my search for knowledge about this new interesting that appears to be taking many by storm, as evidenced by such successful TV shows as BERING SEA GOLD, LOST TREASURE HUNTERS, GOLD FEVER, and GOLD RUSH, I came across the Bazooka Gold Trap. It follows one of my favorite principles: KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid).
If you’ve read my 2004 NYT bestseller, THE BAMBOO CHEST, you’ll probably have gathered from that coming-of-age memoir about an 18-year-old on his first major photo assignment for the Associated Press, covering a hunt for Captain Kidd’s treasure off the coast of communist Vietnam, that I’m not particular to treasure hunting, what many who’ve not […]
