Decoying on rape stubble


Recommended Posts

Had a decent day out on the stubble a few weeks ago.

 

Set up with 10 flocked shells on eezee wobbler spring stick things, a flapper in the middle and towards the back of the decoys. I decided to try the rotary in a different place this time, so I put it at the back of the pattern and off to one side.

 

The birds seemed to like what they saw and started decoying in nicely yes.gif

 

After about an hour I noticed the main flight line across the field had changed, and was now at the top end of the field. There were small groups of 10s and 15s constantly pouring across said part of field and I was on the verge of packing up and moving, but in short, I couldn't be bothered blush.gif

 

The birds continued to decoy steadily throughout the day, (no where near as busy as the top of the field rolleyes.gif ) I managed a few right & lefts and on 3 occasions I was on for my first tripple with the Maxus, unfortunately, all 3 times, I dropped the 1st and 2nd bird and took the ar$£ out of the 3rd rolleyes.gif so still no triples with the Maxus no.gif

 

Anyway, I finnished the day with 207 but unfortunately I lost 29 birds in the standing wheat fields around me, and as they are being cut soon I didn't want to go traipsing through it all and flattening it no.gif
