Favorite decoys?

(1/3) > >>

Night goat:
Was looking thru my decoy collection... some are getting pretty old and ratty and think it's time to retire half the flock. I still have my "hot buy" mallards I bought 16+ years ago. Most of my decoys are GHG but I was thinking about upgrading to fully flocked floaters. Heard some talk about foam filled decoys riding better in the water and look more realistic... I'd love to get a set of cork hand made ones but don't have that kind of cash. Thought I'd see what everybody's favs are and pros and cons

Klickitatsteelie:
SX decoys are top notch. I don’t baby them and they hold up better than anything else I have ever had. I have flocked head mallard floaters and 6 dozen fully flocked honkers and they are both bullet proof.

goosegunner:
I've had great luck with Avian X decoys. I think the new final approach will be good also

ducks4days:
Avian X are pretty dang good in terms of paint durability and posture of the models. Im trying to buy domestic as much as possible and most decoys are made in China, I picked up a few G&H floaters and will keep buying them moving forward.

I have a few dozen tanglefree goose silhouettes that work great. They are less effective late season in open fields, but I like to set them up on dry land by dikes or ponds with good visibility to the shore. I also like to hit the NODAK early goose season with my dad, the birds dont see silhouettes or flags out there often and they are incredibly effective.

Best dekes are the teal and hen pinners swimming in the GHG blocks
