#1 I'm only looking for long beards.
(yes- it will run Jakes off, although some like using a Jake tail on their Pretty Boy for that reason)

#2 Decoys work early in the season (and where the birds DON'T get pressured).

#3 Don't use decoys late in the season............after they have been schooled by others (hunters?).


Most importantly: Do what works for you - that's what I do !
