Find some water that is partly protected .
Place your decoys so they are mostly in the protected water and hunker down .
Wind makes the ducks fly low and will land in any protected areas .
With no circling , they see the decoys and comitt .
Even before you see them some times .
Have to flush them to shoot them ( NO water swatting for me !!!!)
I would set my decoys close to the cattails and call some
Absolutely great advice! Couldn't agree more. As long as you can find some leeward shelter, you can have a great hunt.
