DECOYS AND PROVEN METHODS FOR USING THEM

All Outdoors, Oct. 2000
"Killer set-ups for both ducks and geese. Truly the final word on what decoy layouts work best in getting waterfowl in close.”

From the Publisher
Ducks Unlimited announces the publication of the first book in more than 40 years to offer waterfowlers new methods for using decoys.

The book, Decoys and Proven Methods for Using Them, by veteran waterfowler and regular Ducks Unlimited magazine contributor Wade Bourne, promises to replace Ralf Coykendall’s waterfowling classic Decoys and How to Rig Them, first published in 1955.

Book Description
Through the decades, North American waterfowlers have devised many decoys and many decoy strategies for luring ducks and geese into close shotgun range. Inventive minds and trial-and-error testing have conjured up decoy systems for almost every setting imaginable. Here, for the first time, is a book that offers a variety of effective decoy spreads from some of the country's most successful waterfowling guides and freelancers. Included are strategies and spreads for hunting ducks and geese in small ponds and marshes, large open lakes, coastal bays, rivers, flooded timber, agricultural fields, and many other waterfowling settings. More than 30 detailed descriptions and diagrams of tried-and-true decoy layouts, plus information on everything form the history of decoy making to modern decoys, styles, sizes, rigging, and decoy movement make this the best how-to-decoy book ever. (6 x 9, 232 pages, b&w photos, illustrations)
