[QUOTE="APDDSN0864, post: 2746716, member: 58226"] 338 Dude, don't you have an obnoxious rooster that needs to go away? ( I know, that's redundant...😁) As to mechanical decoys, years ago I bought a bunch of dove decoys that had a "clothes pin" type of fastener. I made some "T" shaped metal posts out of #9 wire to fasten them to. I then spray painted them jet black gloss along with a mechanical dove decoy that has rotating wings. I set my caller, draped in a piece of fake fur, on the ground in front of the moving decoy, put the other decoys scattered around them, and cut loose on the caller. Crow distress works for starters, but I have also successfully used other bird distress calls as well as coyote fight calls. Yes, you [I]will[/I] get crows showing up if they're anywhere around, but that's not a bad thing, they are more confidence decoys for you. 😁 The stark contrast of the jet black birds and the one moving really holds the coyotes' attention once they get a visual on the ruckus. A half-dozen bird decoys, the stakes, and the one moving decoy all fit in a small duffel that I can strap onto my calling pack, so it's really not much added to my load. Ed [/QUOTE]
