Looking through Cabelas and saw this guy. Has anybody used this decoy? Any luck with it? It looks kind of interesting.........

I have several sets of them. The birds seemed to be used to them this year. I think the wing magics may work better. I would save your money as you need a steady wind to keep them from hitting the deck. They also break when your buddy throws the decoys on them.

Never used those, seen them on hunting shows. I use/prefer windwhackers... work well, no complaints.

They look like dodgers for trolling. interesting. Are they hard plastic or foam?

They are horrible, dont waste your money.

Check these out, they are legal in WA and you dont need the wind to power them, they are pull string decoys and work great! I don't know why the bigger stores don't sell them in WA, don't they know we can't use electronic decoys! :bash:

I've had nothing but great success with them this year (1st year using them), but obviously your experience has been quite different.
Hmm? I would have to question this. There are better decoys out there, these don't add much. They may have been just coming into the right decoys set up. We have used 1 to 10 of them. More of a pain in the ass then anthing. I am selling the ones I have and putting the money towards better resources.

Exactly my point, put your money towards something better. DOnt waste it on these.
