country-kid Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 hi, me and a friend were out crow decoying at the weekend and managed a neat bag of 19. we set upusing 10 flocked crow decoys and a bouncer. many birds camin nicely bu there was many more that would just circle and fly above the pattern and we were wondering wether a magnet with 2 dead crows on would pull them down? regards CK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magman Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 If there circling high there's something they don't like or have seen you Flappers beat the magnet hands down on crows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxman2 Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Correct magman, its spooked either by a bad call / no reply or seen something it didnt like, shoo it away as it will only spook and attract others to it. Good time to walk out and tidy up, or put a shot in his general direct, the shockwave and pop wIll shift him, and hopefully put others up in the air to spot your pattern.
