gottsy boy Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Hi all Ok so i went out yesturday and had a drive around with my local farmer who has about 20 acres of rape that is still getting hit by the pigeons, we drove onto one feild and in the corner about 70-100 pigeon lifted and flew away, behind this field is a field that has been set aside and there is a strip of maize that has been cut and left after the pheasent season, the birds were also on this prob about 30-50 feeding on the old cobs, the maize and the rape are seperated by a ditch and some hedge row. My idear was to set up on the maize stubble as it's easyer to see the decoys with a rotary and some real birds prev frozen about a dozon and try to bring them in from both sides, Do you guys think it will be better on the maize or tuff it out on the rape, i was thinking of starting at about eight. any advise would be great..

Sharpshooter.123 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 It all depends where the birds want to be on the day,'my guess would probably be rape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonwolf444 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 when i tryed maize they were not interested about three came in all morning and they all landed out in the seedling field. I moved my decoys 50 yards out on to the field and it picked up a bit more but it still wasnt good going, would be interested to hear how you get on?
