Duck Hunters, need your input
« on: May 25, 2012, 10:19:38 PM »
I was talking with the guy in charge of ordering all the waterfowl gear, decoys, etc tonight at Cabelas. He needs your input on what to order.

He needs to know the brand of decoy you like, size, etc.  Model numbers and pics would help. Also what other gear you would be interested in.

He really wants to taylor the inventory to reflect what is used around here.

Thanks guys.  :tup:

Some snow floaters might be a good idea. I got some GHG last year that worked good. The texas rag kits with heads could be a seller.

For the guys that hunt the tides a lot any adjustable weight system.  So the slip type cord stoppers might be a hit.  Jerk rigs also.  I didn't see any of those the last time I was in there either.

I don't know if they are legal in BC but i'm always baffled when i see Battery opperated motion dekes on the shelves here in WA... There are several non batterie opereted options out there. I would like to see more of those...

Ditto on the snow geese dekes, everything GHG has and also some options for windsocks.  Texas rags on the low end and silo socks.  Also can they order and keep a assortment of custom calls?  Im not talking about a echo laminate but some good choices from RNT, echo, saunders, JJ LARES (?!?!?!) basin, ect?  And a plus one for more camo in bigger sizes, and something other than friggan advantage max4.  Stuff works great for cattails and such but some darker options would be great.  Buckbrush, bottomland, and cross your fingers, some shadowgrass coats and waders from drake waterfowl.  Dont forget winter wheat camo for ground blinds, lots of green up there.
