cometa300s 20 Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 Alright everyone thought I would share my last 2 days out with you. So I was out Sunday night on the farm with my magpie decoy and a bag of rubbish that I use with the decoy I am literally trying everything for these magpies they are gone soon as I see them, they are that good I only come home with a woodpigeon.the night came to an end when the neibouring farms wheat field had caught fire. I phoned the firebrigade and gave them the what3words location. Night number 2 was last night this time I brought the magpie decoy and a plastic bottle rapped in tinfoil, bingo one magpie in about 15 mins of being there. I now no I need some camoflage netting to sit under as the magpies were landing k the fence next to me and flying off so lesson learned. That's it for now good luck everyone 1 Quote Link to post
