Default High flyers, how to bring them down?

Now that we are in the late season, I have not been able to bring the high ones down for a shot. This year they will not respond to dekes or calls. Would someone help me bring 'em down?

Get an anti aircraft gun! They won't come down if they don't want to. You probably aren't doing anything wrong. Call loud to get their attention.

My season just finished up in Ontario, im just east of Detroit. Our last day we left the big spread at home and brought out 2 hen mallards and 1 drake. We limitted very fast,, all the mallards are paired up and a lonely hen is a huge magnet right now for all those fat drakes without a mate! robos were flaring birds big time!!!!

One word:

&quot;MOTION&quot;.



How you want to apply it is up to you. Your dekes must somehow have it to appear lifelike. Ever look at ducks on the pond on a calm day and not see ripples, wakes, and splashes?
