Default Movement.

I was just wondering what everyone does to add some movement to your decoy spreads on days when there is no or little wind? Besides using those rotating wing decoys, I personally don't count those, I'm talking make shift jerk cords or what other ingenious ways has everyone come up with.

Wait, wait, ready PLUG EM!!!!!

push button zebco with about 20 lb and snap swivel. connect to front of the deek, push button and walk back to the blind. as birds show just tighten it up and give it a few yanks. just set it down and shoot. zebco's are almost bullet proof so its tough to hurt them.

bumble ball. take a ziplock freezer bag and cover it with camo tape. tape the edges too, that's where it'll break. attach a thick rubber band to a hole in one of the outer corners. put the spinning ball in the bag, zip it shut, put the rubber band around the tail of a deke.

I have a little vibrator that looks like a hocky puck. It floats around in your deaks and causes alot of motion.

i got mine at kay-bee toys in a mall. it's a plastic ball about the size of a baseball, there is something that looks like a raccoon tail with eyes tied on to it, cut it off. when you put in a battery and turn it on, the ball moves around randomly. $5

I like to throw sticks and stones at the decoys. The splash really finishes them off most of the time. Only throw when they cn't see you moving.
