SSS Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 I have done V, but I had to build it quickly earlier on today, so it is a bit of a bodge! Made it out of an old rabbit pen thingy Hope that will do the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here - I've been trying to catch a magpie for a month, I've tried everything, still no luck!! Can anyone local to me help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 it that drop down door made of plywood? Yes it is mate, the trap is homemade, but that door is at the back of the trap and is used for putting bait in and getting things out from the back of the trap. I am in a real predicament now, today I caught another crow in the fox trap. Don't get me wrong, its not a bad thing, but they aren't really top of the agenda at the minute! I shot todays with a 20 bore. How can I stop the crows going in the trap? All the best, Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikka tom Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 lucky u got something mate now had a larsen trap out for about a month i have moved it every week tried plastic decoys in it, eggs, road kill, shot rabbits i have seen crows and magpies flying over it but still cannot get anything!!! i would not bother with a larsen trap just bild a ladder trap i only use the larsen trap for magpies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trxnav Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 i do only use the larsen for maggies mate sorry i meant by saying i have seen crows flying over that even they are not interested in what ever bait i have inside at the time.
