What are you runnin'

[fubar]

Just woundering what everyone is running for a spread this year. The waterfowl forum is way to dead for it to be a week before opener. so what are you throwing out this year?

For me i personaly have 12 ghg fullbody canadians and 4 bigfoots. along with them we run about 35 or 40 flambeau shells and 18 FB mallards with 2 baby mojos one drake and one hen. depending on who i am hunting with my friends will usuly bring anything from 12-18 more fullbody bigfoots and a few mallard fulls. If we are hunting sheetwater out in a field i often times bring 12-18 hot buy mallards and throw them on the water with the mojos with everything els set up around the outside.

For small ponds i just have the doz. and a half mallards i throw out with the mojos and usuly have prety good success. if its realy early, like this weekend out in nodak i will throw out a doz. teal decoys mixed in with the mallroys

Big water..now this is where it gets fun. between me and my hunting partners we often times get a little carried away. i have probubly 100 bluebill decoys thats i throw out along with verious types brands of mallard decoys that total somwhere between 100 and 125 that i use. My cousin has 7 doz. mixed mallards and whistler decoys we throw out and finish off the spread with a half doz. to a doz. floating geese up tight to shore. It is alot of work and rarely pays off because by the time it is effective i am sitting in the deer stand!

In the spring we have a couple doz. shells and 600 texas rags we throw out to fool the snow birds along with a 2 speaker e-caller.

So lets hear what everyone is running, always fun to hear what you have and what you want to get up to!

if i'm hunting water early i'm throwin out between 4-8 goose floaters (higdon and FA) and about 12 - 20 ghg mallards and about half dozen woodies along with a few pins and gads mixed in to add variety new this year will be my baby mojo say good bye to the lucky duck  if its shallow water i'll cut back on the floaters and put out a dozen ghg mallard field shell decoys

if i'm hunting later in the year i keep the goose floaters and go throw out about 20-36 mallards wit a few gads and pins still mixed in the baby mojo and whatever else my buddies bring

if i'm hunting a field which i really haven't done to much except for late goose but i'll have my dozen field shell mallys out and the mojo along with 2-3 dozen bigfoots and about 2 dozen honker shells i'll even bring my floaters out and set them down in the field along with a half dozen super mags to really catch their eyes now i'f i'm hunting with my buddy we then have another dozen or so bigfoots along with another dozen shells and 2 dozen silo's and another half dozen or so super mags along wit a flag a piece

i have 13 goose decoys 5 are older flambue ones i think and the other 8 are big foot floaters. then its a dozen and a half hot buys, 4 butt up mallards(2 drakes 2 hens) 2 feeder decoys that are new this year. 6 GHG prograde wood duck decoys off to the side because wood ducks are loners 12 GHG teal decoys(blue wing and green 6 of each) mixed in with the mallards. 6 GHG prograde wigeons and top it off with 6 GHG pintails.

Early season duck is mostly both teal, woodies, maybe a small shoveler group, and mallards.  Mid season, as it gets colder, mainly mallards.  Late season is mallards, bluebills, ring necks, and golden eyes.  Always have geese dekes in every group and a super mojo mallard spinning when we can use it.

Throwing out 8 goose decoys with about 3 dozen mallard and 1 dozen blue bills. (You can never have enough) Good luck to all and be safe out there, I want to here from everyone on how they did...
