hedd-wyn Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 After clearing most of the corvids on one of my permissions I received a phone call off my mate saying that farmer Giles nest door needed some corvids thinning on his land. The farmer had recently ploughed and drilled a field down by the river and the corvids were absolutely wrecking it. We set out a dozen decoys in no particular pattern (FUDs included) and we managed to bag 28 in one morning, including my first two magpies I used no4 shot 32g for the first time and must say they worked a treat on the bigger crows. Overall very happy with the result, we will be popping over again to thin them even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
