Decoys

This is not something small or a ducktail painted to look like a goose, rather this is a full-size goose tail with a powerful pump capable of moving a lot of water.

Most will agree in the early season and with those hunting ducks further north, spinners are indeed a must.

I’ve been addicted to archery pronghorn hunting for 25 years, and my favorite method is duping a buck with a decoy.

There are so many possibilities and rigging your decoys should provide you years of service with little or no frustration.  Time should be spent hunting not untangling decoy lines. 

Dakota Decoys are a product of the Midwest and Missouri River Valley.  Bill Willroth, the owner of Dakota Decoys and an avid hunter and media personality orchestrates their design and development.  His show The Grind is a great way to learn and enjoy waterfowl hunting. 

Decoys can be extremely useful but do depend on a number of factors such as the game or predator you’re after, the season, and the quality of said decoy. All that said, if you’re in the market for a high-quality turkey decoy there is one I’ve had repeated success with: the Flambeau King Strutter.

The new Flambeau Gunning Series is an appreciated differentiation to any decoy spread. Give yourself the advantage of decoys that look great, ride with attitude on the water and provide excellent action in light and heavy wind, wave, and current.

These calls have three speakers covering a full circle around the call. The biggest, Top Dogg, even has a subwoofer.

Lack of preparation can ruin an otherwise good hunt. Whether it’s a stalling boat engine or tangled decoy lines—here’s a list to help you avoid disaster.
