Dude:

More than 5 guys may be a problem with gunbarrels going in all directions.

I use a Final Approach Eliminator Blind, gets you in the decoys, where you need to be.

I use a Remington SP-10 10 ga. semiauto shotgun. I have used it for about fifteen years, works well, you MUST be careful on decoying birds.

Dogs can be a BIG help when hunting on water. Especially if the water is over your waders.....

I use a Sean Mann "Eastern Shoreman" Birds Eye Maple flute call. I have used it for about fifteen years, love it. Yes, it was expensive. Still love it.

I use mainly silhouette decoys (Real Geese-Darrel Wise), however, have Big Foots, shells, etc. Silhouettes are easier to carry in numbers.
