Knotty duck decoys
« on: Yesterday at 03:42:54 PM »
Short and simple question. Who's running one and what are your thoughts? How much of a pia, is running the string? Thanks in advance.

We run 2 and yes a major PIA  I always hand it to young ones and it’s hilarious to watch them chuck the string when the ducks r locked up. When alone running 2 is a real pain. On the plus side they do seem to work 👍

They work really well. PIA when hunting with dogs. Optimum to have one non-shooter in a group working it.

I have one and it’s a complete royal pain in the a$S that I bring every single time because it works. I don’t even call anymore. The dog gets absolutely tangled every trip and it’s a total pain to keep it upright in the river rocks but I’d take it over a jerk string or an extra dozen decoys every single time.

I use the decoy dancer whip splash, same thing. Major pain in the a** but they work for sure. Decoy dancer makes a floating stand for them that works well in river rock when you can’t get a pole in the ground. Definitely don’t hunt without it.
