Hey Dozer, send me a text and I will send you some pics of doors and traps.

caught 14 birds today, no banded birds just big bridge chickens.
I made contact with the owner of the banded bird, thanks to Double Haul.
Gonna try to work out a reward of cull birds from him in return for his prized racer.

All my traps, but one had birds when I returned from the trial on Sunday.
One trap had been opened and birds gone, damn tree huggers.

Anyone catching anything?

my new trap is out by corn elevator, I counted 30 birds on top of the bin. nothing inside yet. thinking about going under bridge and net one and place in trap. I am using corn

I put a decoy bird in my trap that I netted last night, tried a new bridge last night and had a visitor ask me a few questions. I think he was a Sherrif, wanted to know what the heck I was doing and was it legal. I stated the DNR stated is was 100% legal to harvest under bridges and he looked at my license and said sorry to bother you.

had a hard time with this bridge, my pole/net was not long enough and I swear the pigeons new that they woud sit at the top and not move. I am thinking about using conduit in sections. I need about 25 ft of pole

wondering what some of you are using for nets

thanks Gregg for picture also

pulled my trap last night, got nothing. having more luck with netting. Caught 5 last night.
