You are definitely going to need some weights on those decoys. I would recommend strap style weights unless you are hunting on a large lake or river, in which case you are going to need something that digs into the bottom like a scoop style weight. The strap style weights wrap around the keel or head of the decoy when they are stored, which makes for less tangled lines. As for the decoy line I use Quick Fix decoy cord and crimps. If you check Wal-Mart or Cabelas they both offer the weights, cord, and crimps, along with directions for rigging them in a rigging kit that has all you need for 1 dozen decoys. Hope this helps and welcome to the fun.[Cut em.][&o]
