If a setter is a versatile dog then I wish someone told my dog about it. Sit quietly in a blind? Perhaps with drugs. Blood track a deer? Maybe if you tied a cookie to it. Retrieve? She'd look at me like, "you want me to put that in my mouth?!"
It is noted in the early Irish setters to be natural retrievers in the field as well as waterfowling. Though I do not waterfowl hunt mine will retrieve naturally but doesn't carry the birds in the usual manner.

I have no idea on how to force fetch so I have no reseason to learn with natural retrieving skills of it's own. I have thrown sticks out in the water for it to retrieve though. I also see that if you run your dog fairly hard it will sit still for you. Once learned of waterfowling I think it would do OK in the blind as well.
