[Mark Brendemuehl]

For ducks? Geese? Water? Land? A combo? Be a little more specific and we can fill you in exactly.

It all depends on what your hunting, where, how many birds your seeing, etc.

[David Rearick]

We run anywhere from 4-10 dozen FFD's depending on the situation. We can run more if we combine rigs, but for what we hunting 10 dozen is enough for our land hunts.

For divers we run 10 doz GHG bluebills, 3 doz GHG buffies, 1-1/2 doz GHG goldeneyes, 1 doz GHG cans and 1 doz GHG ringnecks. For puddle ducks we run 4 doz GHG mallards {1 dozen full bodies, 2 doz GHG "hot buys" and 1 dozen GHG oversize floaters}, 1 doz GHG widgeon and 1 doz GHG pintails.

That must just be amazing to hunt over

[Joe Fladeland]

Right now I run 6 1/2 Dozen FFD Lessers and 10 Dozen Full Body Mallards along with a dozen snows.

Jeff,
Thanks for reminding me of that hunt:(.

For an early season hunt I might only put out 1 or 2 dozen. Later in the year or if were running traffic we have used up to 9 or 10 dozen decoys.

[Christian Curtis]

In my basic rice field set-up I will use:

7 doz. Mallards (Hot Buy Magnum this year)
2 doz. LS Pintail
1 box Cans
1 box Shovelers
1 box Wigeon
1 box Black Duck
3 doz FB Mallards
1 doz FB Pintail
1 box FB Black Ducks

And a partrige in a pear tree!! if you can drive trailer up to the hunt site.

[Rhett Riddle]

We tend to use as many coots as we can get our hands on and somewhere around 8-10 dozen ringers, bills, buffs, and redheads. For divers of course.
