Any body help.

Evening all

 

Just looking for a call bird for my larsen trap, I have tried eggs and nest tin foil bread etc.

 

Not had any luck so just though I would see if anybody has one, I'll return the favour if I manage to trap one.

 

I stay in fife but travel a lot with work throughout central Scotland Edinburgh etc.

 

Thanks

Wrong time of the year for a larsen trap , they wont be territorial now , maybe thats no helping you catch

[Stuart1985 256]

Yeah I know, you got to catch them start of the year however I have been asked to get rid of them by land owner who hates them, shot a few but a member on here gave me the trap.

interesting... why you using callbird then being time of year n all

[Stuart1985 256]

I don't understand your question? If your asking why do I want a call bird even tho I know it's the wrong time of year, it's because I chap that is allowing me to shoot in his land in return I have to control the magpies. I have shot a few however I would like to see if trapping them throughout the week will happen, not allow to shoot only weekends,

​early next year before they fully fledged get ya self up to a nest & stick a net over it,,, you'll have more call birds than enough.................................
