Post by: Evil_EdwardO on August 22, 2013, 12:26:28 PM
Any one have any tips? I'm going to give it a shot on the 1st. I have dekes, calls, blind, etc...I'm going to set up in one of the wheat fields by my house.

"crow fight" on my FoxPro always seemed to get them riled up.  Throw in a couple owl sounds and get ready to start shooting!

If a flock shows up at the same time try to shoot every other one, that way the mate will return to check, otherwise they scatter to the winds..  Do you know where they roost at?  If you can set up on there normal flight path you can really do some damage :tup:

Some people end up eating it, repeatedly, and still never learn.

Feed the stray cats with them.  Provide food for natures critters.

For locating crows, I really don't know what I'm doing. A few places I predator hunt they show up (2-10 of them) and I was going to try those spots. Was going to see if I could get more numbers to show up if I crow call and have decoys. I get a few to come to my house practicing calling.

At dusk and dawn they fly to and from there roost, some areas you can see hundreds of them doing this.  Try to find access to private property or a good ambush spot along there path and mark the times they are flying to and from.

Crazy.  My wife is pretty supportive of the hunting and fishing my daughter and I are taking on this year but I don't know if I could get her to try crow.

There are some recipes out there though...This one is particularly interesting: http://www.cooks.com/recipe/898922w2/famous-kentucky-crow.html (http://www.cooks.com/recipe/898922w2/famous-kentucky-crow.html)  :D

If you're married with a daughter, you already eat plenty of crow to begin with. The real thing should be a cakewalk comparatively speaking!  :chuckle: :chuckle:

Crows are evil and fun to fold :twocents: :tup:

Lay out some fish guts and carcasses on a stump and they will come

I've always wondered why there were tons of crows in a flock flying over my house every night around the same time. lol

Buest tip you can get for any birds.... CAMO. If the crows see you, your chances go down pretty quick.

@Evil_EdwardO... not funny

Yep.  Dawn and dusk is a great time if you are in the path of their roost.  They kind of split up for the middle of the day but you can still do quite well if there is food around.
