Decoy Spreads
Ok, I am green to this. I've started teaching myself how to duck hunt, and Ive downed birds on two of four hunts. I really gotta work on my shooting lol. I am looking to better my decoy spreads. I use six green wing teal, six pintail, and about five mallard (two sleepers, two feeders, one magnum). My usual setup is putting the teal by themselves and the mallards and pintail mixed up with a wide gap between them for a landing area.
I have a few questions:
1.) Should I mix the teal with the other bigger ducks?
2.) I am thinking of adding gadwall or coots to the mix. Yay or nay?
3.) I also have a Mojo teal. However, I am having problems with the battery power; the 8 volt batteries wont last more than about two hours. Any way I can fix it?
Granted, I can only carry a certain number of decoys. This is because I hunt primarily from a kayak, and I have limited room. Any input is welcome. Thank you!
