sussex 5,777 Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 .... get over about two and get set up there coming in late afternoon the farmer said ....I’m over set up at nine got the hide built and went for breakfast ..got back about one and waited ....not a pigeon to be seen for four hours . I had a couple of crow decoys I put out after seeing a few crossing a tree line at the top of the field , and had an immediate response with a couple of jackdaws , gradually there was a little bit of action starting and about six a few pigeons came in to the decoys , two went on the Ff5’s and they pulled a few more in ..sadly nothing that could be described as a field blue with pigeon.. finished with a few pigeon and and a few jacks , and had a couple of pigeons and a couple of crows make the boundary ..enjoyed the afternoon ..be thousands overthere tomorrow. 3 Quote Link to post

Once I had a couple down the ff5’s helped pull in any that came over but it was literally the odd bird ..the blacks gave a bit of sport as well so wasn’t a bad way to spend an afternoon ..and the dog had a few retrieves so she was happy .. 1 Quote Link to post
