jack the lad Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Had a day on the rape yesterday with derwentman, arrived at the ground to see what must have been hundreds of pigeons take flight. B) Set up with single magnet, flapper and lots of decoys.Pigeons arrived within 5 minuets we thought we were in for a good day but as is the case one bang and there off .We noticed they were flighting to another field of rape only three fields away which was also on the list,so i picked up and set set up in the field hoping to keep them moving.This did work for a while but they soon became very suspicious tried changing pattern etc the conditions were not perfect with very little wind we kept going but only managed 12 pigeons still enjoyed it though.

derwentman Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) Jack you were right though to set upanother hide and pattern i dont think we would have made double figures without it it was hard work for what we had but if every time you went you got bag full it wouldnt be the same sport Your wife says you only sit in a field anyway so she was right Sammy the lab enjoyed his day out and as you were in another hide enjoyed 1 of your sandwiches too Edited January 18, 2009 by derwentman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
