JDog Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Most PW members have been struggling for the last six weeks or so. It just seems as if the pigeons have gone into the woods to breed and have been feeding on leaf buds and did not want to venture far from the nest and therefore not offering any decoying opportunities. I have been particularly frustrated of late with the lack of opportunities over spring rape. I have seen it drilled into the best soil and the right time and watched it grow to a stage where it is beyond pigeons attention with not a bird on it. Yesterday I found some spring rape drilled into very heavy fields far too late in the season and which has grown very little. That is the field which the pigeons wanted to be on today. I arrived at 9:00 and watched four flight lines converge on the one field. Unfortunately that meant that I had to set up in a different field as the first was too close to the road and the wind was wrong. In the end it didn't really matter as the rotary attracted them over the roadside field and into the decoy pattern in the adjacent field. Pigeons decoyed very well for five hours until they abruptly stopped flighting in the middle of the afternoon. I had clicked 165 and picked 162. Just where the birds came from I have no idea as in the last month or so I have not seen so many birds in total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
