I agree with John. I believe they scare geese while rinning. With one exception, if geese see a bunch of ducks droppin into the area it is ok

In my experience, geese do not finish well when you are using a Mojo Duck. Have seen plenty of folks on TV that are using multiple Mojo ducks on set ups for ducks and geese in fields with good success. I hunt rivers and swamps.. most of our shots at geese are just passing shots anyway, but the geese seem to steer clear of us when we have the spinner on.
