berreta682decoyer Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hello just looking for info had a day on rape yesterday just put the fuds out set them in 2 separate patterns with a 40 yard gap roughly for the kill zone days started brilliant birds commiting well. Then as it got around dinner time the birds just was not intrested so I decided to set my turbo flapper in between the 2 patterns. Birds was in the area could see them flying around .but as soon as it started to flap the veered of dramaticly. Is there any thing wrong with what im doing or the positining of my flapper an im under a flightline its usally busy all day. Do you think the turbo flapoer scares the birds or would you not have the flapoer with fuds. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter.123 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Just remember birds feed 1st thing and late afternoon so get out early it could be the birds are going to roost at lunch time, we have all experienced days where birds have no interest in any pattern atb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also no reason why fuds and a flapper can't be used together. I imagine the pigeons were staying away for some other reason- it's easy to blame flappers/magnets etc when pigeons veer off.

Cosd Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I personally would have put the flapper with one of the decoy sets. My flapper works with a timer but I also have a remote on it, if they are jittery to it I switch it off as I see them heading to the decoys, but most days they don't mind the flapping.

Matt Gould Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 it might of been because you put the flapper in the middle of the gap between the two sets of decoys, they might not of had room to drow in. if you did have it right in the midle try it at the frount just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
