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
