Marty:

For us it really depends on the time of year. Right now the crows are very active. I use a group of 10 to 15 hard plastic body decoys and a few of the big, flocked decoys mixed in for each set. My buddy used an additional 15 hard plastics this morning set about 30 yards away. I have used a garbage bag amongst the decoys made to look like they have torn it open and eating what's inside. The big deal for me is to hide well or direct their attention somewhere other than where I am. That's where the Lucky Duck Triple Play Crow Decoy helps with movement.

This time of year, they seem to love a fight, so I use the crow fight call on the FoxPro call. Early in the year, the fight call has not seemed to work as well. Different things have worked. When the crow fight call has played for 15 to 20 minutes and the action slows, I turn it off and in the silence, sometimes they will fly over to see what all the silence is about.

I'm sure others may have suggestions for what has worked for them.
