Crow Hunting

[pnbrock]

i went with a buddy and he said he was using a baby crow call.i laughed at him as it didn't sound very good,wasn't long and the sky was black with flying rats.then i was eating a little crow

I've never hunted them. I understand that even after boiling the crap out of them they're still tough as shoe leather and taste like shit. If it's alive and I ain't going to eat it or it ain't going to eat me I won't shoot it. (one exception beng wolves of course because they devastate the population of what I'm going to eat.)

I was playing with an electronic caller in the back yard the other day as I wanted the birds to cleanup some fishguts that I put out.
Used the crow fight and then dying crow. Worked great to bring in a pile of magpies....but the things were too scared to touch anything.

Need to try that out in the bush where I can actually shoot.

Phreddy, look deeper.


Crows are eating you out of house and home, even though you don't actually see it happening in your house.
They are crop killers and are a REAL factor in grain costs because people DON'T hunt them.

Their #'s are outta control....


Schedule C and ALL hunting seasons exists for reasons, valid reasons - It's not something that was just pulled out of thin air.

Spend any time on a farm/ranch and either you'll be over-run with pests negatively effecting your livelyhood, or you'll start making more exeptions pretty fast.

You islanders are a sick bunch!

I resent that!.. Were just lonely over here. ...
Fill your boots and kill'em all. Those li'l buggers. They wake me up early in the springtime around breeding time. On garbage days they sure can make a mess.

Now that our all our our household garbage is now trucked away from our dump, the effin ravens are now the terrors of the town on garbage day.
There used to be hardly any in town, but since then they've taken over.

You're in for a tough hunt.
But once you get one in (the scout) and nail it, get prepared for some fast shooting as they'll flock in for the rescue; Crows will be coming from out of no where.

And then it's done - You'll need to move to a different area...


If you learn the different calls and when to properly use them, you'll have that 'scout' doing whatever ya want.

Are you one of those guys that believes ducks send scouts to?

Nope.
Can't say that I ever witnessed that...

Cool, so can you lend me a little insight on how crows do it?
