decoying mad Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 ive been and bought some lofting decoys today so im off to try them in the morning. im going to do a standard set up on the rape and put 8 lofters in a well known sitty tree at the side of the rape field to see if it will pull them in any better than just using the ground decoys and magnet i also bought a couple of crow lofting deeks so going to put them in a ajacent tree to see if they will pull a few extra crows in as well as using the caller. its going to be trial and error but hay ho its worth a go :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 It may help to put a couple of decoys on the ground as well. It should give the bird's a little more confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MerseaDavid Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I have quite often set up on rape under an oak sitty tree without decoys and the lofted decoys have worked fantastically But I quite often set up a pattern on the field with magnet, flapper, bouncers and decoys and have the lofties and the lofted decoys stand out alot better than any of the decoys so every little helps lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
