Looks like your bait might be a way forward Cheers turbo, I'm like a kid on his first fishing trip every time I check the trap! Yes, I know everyone has favourite baits for their traps but I have found butchers bones are a real pull. Be patient, curiosity will get the better of them!

kippylawkid Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Another 2 corbies tonight - smoking!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kippylawkid Posted March 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 To update, no more for me as yet but thought it worth reporting that my pal has set his trap right in the middle of a busy, static caravan site that has heaps of corvids. He has a small compound that is fenced off, so safe from do-good tree-huggers. He set the trap last week with a magpie call bird and has already had 7 magpies. His trap is only single entry so can obviously only catch 1 at a time. He says that when he's been checking it, there are 4 or 5 on top of the cage! I think his success is down to the fact that the magpies are less wary there and they are bold as brass around humans. He's 1 ahead of me so I need to get catching!

kippylawkid Posted April 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Ha! Bit of a quiet week. I had a HUGE Maggie on Thurs night that I have kept as a caller. My pal is catching them for fun on the caravan site. At least one every day. I'm going to leave mine the weekend and if nowt else I'll shift to our farm as they're in lambing and corbies are buzzing about. Keeps farmer happy too. I stopped posting as I didn't want to bore folk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kippylawkid Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Cheeky little double of magpies in the trap last night. I thought it had gone quiet but there's been an influx of birds - possibly looking to claim the ground? Either way I'm keeping it set for a few more days.
