We normally find the crows, than work the situation to our advantage. We only use e-callers for them. So considering a mile or so range of the caller (playing the wind too), we will find cover around that range to set up for them. Sometimes we use decoys, sometimes we don't. The decoys bring them closer, without them they can be a bit weary. Camo is a must! These birds are VERY smart.
Crow calls are cheap and not too hard to blow. Test them on real birds in the off season and see if they respond to your pitches.
