brain dead Posted March 28, 2003 Report Share Posted March 28, 2003 i have never tried this out but will hopefully give it ago next time i go out and shoot a bunny. people say slit it open and leave it slit slide up and make sure its upwards facing eye is open(they like those) i am sure there are others who can give you better advice than this. :unsure: i to am interested to hear the replies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everygoodnamewastaken Posted March 28, 2003 Report Share Posted March 28, 2003 An owl decoy with bright eyes helps. Try to find nests and sit well hidden with little movment then pop them on the nests or wit till the lil baby crows are on the branches and swiftly execute them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willtrevt Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 I have just (10 mins ago) discovered this tactic: hide on the outside of a field with cows or cow poo in it, then the crows and rooks will fly in and eat the poo! And bang you have one in the bag. i was not wearing cammo just behind small dead tree but i supose cammo would help. Once you have shot one leave it there and then all is so called friends wil come and peck at it and so the pile gets bigger and bigger! Good luck reply with if this method worked just intrested!!

red_stag88 Posted April 1, 2003 Report Share Posted April 1, 2003 Put eggs ,dead rabbit, bird in a field and wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARK 1 Posted April 1, 2003 Report Share Posted April 1, 2003 as sean's aware i bought a flapper from deako intentionaly for using it with dead woodie's after having quite resonable success i noticed the corvid's were getting awfully close to it & seemed to be v.intrested in the movement. i decided on my next outing i'd try it on it's own,thus i set out equiped with 1no. flapper,1 pecking crow and a young rabbit from the day before. placing all the deeks not 40 yds from my hide i waited, things went slow at first and then like turning a tap on the action started. crow after crow flew over the field a couple of clicks with the remote on the flapper and they could not resist, no hesitation or caution as the crow's usualy fly ,they were suicidle. ended the day on 37 crow's,4 magpie's and a rook. BRILLIANT. regards mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everygoodnamewastaken Posted April 1, 2003 Report Share Posted April 1, 2003 Taking crow's is really rewarding Cause they are usually farout and there feathers are hard I'd rather shoot a crow than 2 pigeons anyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeon Hunter Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Stalk a field that has just been muck spreaded in the last couple of days and you should find plenty of jaks crows and rooks. But bear in mind they seem to always have a scouting crow on top of a wall or fence to keep an eye out so keep tight into a wall. A good method is to crawl to a gap or a fence or even a gate and shoot em from there as they will pick you out from perching on top of a wall to easily Good hunting Pigeon Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjimmer Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Put a white ferret in a wire cage about 30 yards in front of your hiding place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernyha Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Thought we had covered this one rjimmer and it was established that using live decoys is highly illegal. What do you say to PC Plod, that you are putting the ferret out for a bit of sunbathing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
