Title: Full Body Deeks Standing on Layout Boat?
Post by: SnowDog on October 01, 2013, 12:45:41 PM
Anyone place one or two full body deeks standing on their layout boat for confidence?

I haven't used full bodies but I have a couple floaters modified to fit the hull of the ufo.

I have used resters and modified floaters where the bottoms were cut off and formed to fit the contour of the layout on my layout.  If you get to high you may have decoys cutting off your swing.  I did use a few spinning wing rigs that were rigged up for deep water above the layout to draw the attention away from the boat.  I found the scoters were lining up on them and flying right up the boat.  Made for close shots. :chuckle:

I put a standing goose on the bow of my Starcraft when floating down the rivers, I figured if it gave me three extra seconds for a duck to freak out, it might make all the difference.   :chuckle:

We're probably a mile from land and 20' deep.  Works great as it's a floating seat up tethered to an anchor.
