Pull string goose and duck decoys
« on: September 06, 2014, 08:53:45 AM »
Hey does anyone know of any good motion decoy companies that use a pull string or any other method besides battery? Obviously here in Washington we cant use the battery powered stuff so I would like to find something that would work that is not battery powered.

Look up aero outdoors. They make a great pull string duck
Decoy. Plus I think they are local wa company. Outdoor emporium in Seattle usually has them in stock

Notty Duck, if I spelled that right makes a good pull string/spinning wing decoy. Also Bill Saunders makes the WhipSplash spinning wing decoy. Both are good decoys.

Googled nottyduck with the wife sitting next to me, lets just say I was clicking back very quickly. Changed the search to Knotty duck and had better results!

Cant find anything on the whipsplash, but did find the knottyduck and the motion decoy that Aero outdoors makes.

I got one from aero outdoors a few months back and really like it. And they are in Burbank so not to far away.

Bill Saunders doesn't make the whip splash. He used to sell them. The whip splash is made in Scapoose Oregon. By Eric strand the company name is Decoy Dancer. He makes the spinning wing "whip splash" as well as the "kick splash" a duck butt with feet that spin and splash the water. I use both products with great results. Just search for Decoy dancer or S2 calls and you will find them.

I have a whipsplash/decoy dancer and it is a well made product. Don't use it that much though.

Also add that other then the GHG shell they are 100% made in America.

I have used one for several years. When you look them up check for the migration series, fully flocked and available in divers as well.

Great decoy along with the Knotty Duck.  Both easy to replace the surgical tubing.  Most guys I know that purchased the Aero along with myself, sold them.  If all you have tried is the Aero, you may not know there are better options available.   :tup:

I have an aero that I like.  What products are you saying are better?  Just the knotty?
