I'm no expert...

But my experience has proven to me that the set up is more important than the calling. Decoys are important. Hand calls work better for me on yotes than electric callers. Electric work better for me on 'cats...give it to them pretty constant till you kill em. Good luck!

Check the MS laws on yotes...kinda iffy, if I remember right and lots of warden judgment will come into play I think...Cat season closed in Feb if I read the regs right, and think you can only hunt yotes with weapons legal for an open season at the time of the hunt, but very uncertain of that as I don't yote hunt MS much.

Go talk to your local GW and tell him your situation and what you are wanting to do. I bet he can give you some insight.

Only thing legal for night hunting is standard .22 rimfire(not magnum) or smaller or #6 shot or smaller.

You can use e-caller and lights for coyotes. Landowners or agricultural leaseholders or their designated agents may take predatory animals year-round on lands owned or leased by them.

The animals MDWFP classes as "predators" are: coyote, beaver, nutria and hog.

Thanks Wingman. I knew you'd come through. Hows the family doing? Hope all is well.

How does one go about becoming a "designated agent" for a landowner???

To "become" a designated agent, get the landowner/ leaseholder to write you some type of letter saying you are the person he has designated to take (beaver, coyote, nutria, hog) on their land for a certain time period. Both of you probably should sign it and have their phone number on it for quick reference.

If hogs are depredating crops, you will need a dep. permit from the District office to take them.
