drakeshead gunner 26 Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Haha it's something I will try its just trying to get out of ya head how dirty they are. Quote Link to post
03milesR 6 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'd eat anything apart from any animal or bird that eats any kind of meat. Normally with crows it's dead and decaying, rotting meat. That's what puts me of even trying them Quote Link to post

drakeshead gunner 26 Posted July 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Yes mate I use a pigeon magnet with crows on it, worked a treat. But as I'm sure u know with the magnet it can go wither way so don't be scared to bring it in if they seem to be spooked by it. Good luck mate Quote Link to post
drakeshead gunner 26 Posted July 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Sorry just re-read your post, I use pigeon decoys with black socks on as crow deeks. Then the more birds I get to ground I put a pair on the magnet and add the rest to the pattern Quote Link to post
