Re: Decoys?
Ay decoy will work, spread them out some and create a pocket in the middle for the ducks to land.
Re: Decoys?
Soo as long as incoming ducks see decoy ducks, thats ok? I just didnt wanna go spending money on decoys that i didnt need. And are magnum decoys worth the money?
Re: Decoys?
I hunt in South Fla. I normally set up teals, and a few coots.

My setup is 12 BWT , 6 Mallard hens , 6 Coots , and 6 Pintails .H60mech wrote:Hey guys, im new at hunting waterfowl, and was wondering what kind of decoys are good to use in Florida.

Re: Decoys?
well in your area you're mostly be hunting Divers ( Ringers , Blue bill ) . I would get a dozen Ringnecked , and 1 to 2 dozen coots . All ducks like landing around coots .H60mech wrote:I guess central, im hunting in Spring Hill.

Re: Decoys?
What ducks are u seing and get decoys to attract them . Not saying to get every species of decoy . Coots are the best decoy you can have in your spread .H60mech wrote:Never seen blue bills where i hunt, im not hunting towards the gulf, i go inland a little bit.
