Goose decoy trick.

[Kevin Burroughs]

I was gifted a dozen Final Approach honker decoys and the little bungee strap they have on the butt is really slick for picking up and or moving decoys.

I took and drilled all the tails on my full body decoys and used Tanglefree decoy line and cord connectors for a slick DIY decoy loop. It is easy to pick up 10 decoys at a time

Tail loops are the bomb. I did 600 full bodies last yr. I used Paracord.

I wish I had done it 30 years ago. Its really slick when you have to adjust a spread, cuts the time by 75%

 

[Calikev]

That's a slick idea.

Did all my full bodies a couple years ago, used 400 lb. mono and crimps

I even did my full body duck decoys, thinking about doing my shells also.

Did tail loops a few years back. Haven't done shells as I don't remember last time I put them out. If hauling decent distance, get 6 or 8 foot pole and two guys and you can haul a boatload out.

I used Paracord.

Me, too. Mice don't think it's spaghetti.

Dude .. Where You been ? …TAIL LOOPS are old news … Only decoys I don’t have them on is my old hard side DSD giants .. I’m not even gona try it … I got pretty good at making tail loops doing about 800 few yrs back .. . We used 1/4 bungy cord , that decoy line breaks after a while ..
If you have a huge spread like we run … Get a 12ft pc of pipe and two guys .. you can get a bunch on there with the tail loops … They are a dream when you have 1800 to set out and pick up …
