I only bagged 4 today , for 7 shots , birds were very wary . They came in high and over the top of my hide for a reccy and then gone. I played statue for 4 hours !!

Farmer had disced rape after 6 days .Same on my other permissions . Is it worth bothering still when its disced over ? I noticed alot of seed still in the soil so should be plenty of food to attract them .

Ive had some great bags on disced rape stubble but it depends on what else there is for them in the area , dont no what it was with you today but there was very little wind today which can make it harder to decoy them from time to time ,tho no problems there for me today as they decoyed spot on last few would not but still got shot just a shame they stopped coming :oops:

without doubt it is, they still go on it, we had 138 3 weeks a go on a disced rape stubble, and on thursday we shot 100 on a barley stubble next door to that field and put 200 off the disced field when we arrived it was the fact they were flighting better to the barley stubble why we shot on that.
