Those look good. For the cost it is worth the investment just to see if they work.

bought em tried em ?????


in a gentle wind they seemed to be doing what they are supposed to do, any more wind than that they stay wrapped around the head of the deke. also when the sun hits em strong they shine like all get out.
so maybe with a few alterations?
2cents

Fatal Flarers

Man you might aswell put small cuts of trash bags on your decks if you want that look.
The only motion decoy that will help you kill ducks are the ones that give ducks credit for being smart and keen and that's decoys with true motion which is hard to find.

I can't imagine that they would stay in place like you would need them to be. They look like a bib on duck. I got really tired of messing with my jerk cord last year and used some magnum decoys filled with foam and one of the "weasel balls" to make them move around. It put decent motion in the spread without having to mess with pulling on the jerk cord. I am going to break those out again this year.

A small piece of double sided tape in the middle of the decoys back to keep it place would seem smart. Obviously, like everything else, the right situation is required. They would definitely not work well everywhere.

they stay in place because they fit real tight. had to warm them some to get them over the head of the deke.

and as stated they would work better in the right situation.

ideal would be light wind and overcast.

while waiting for sunrise the wind hit them a couple of times and they really look to be alive, just like a duck stretching its wings.

they are split down the middle to allow the wings to move separately.

hell anybody wants to try em, send self addressed stamped evelope, pm me ok i was able to find them and i only have 6 sets, set being male and female. and they are going faster than i thought they would
