FUD's

[unapalomablanca]

I bought 6 fud's from the NRA. They are the best decoys ive found. They are very lifelike and all i do is stick six out and i get a sniff more or less within minutes and have myself some real birds to add to the pattern. I have ditched the floaters and just build a nice neat pattern with birds propped up etc. I dont allow any mess around the pattern and i dont allow too many birds so i keep excess away from the pattern. I dont bother with any magnet and i am having the best decoying ive ever known. I think you can get too scientific and i am gonna keep this method from now on. If im not on stubbles then i have to elevate everything and this is a different ball game admittedly. My bag is lovely and light to walk to the field and i aint spending anything on gimmicks. Try it.

I've been using FUDs for 12 month or so now, they really are great, I have 17 and this year at the midland I'm going to invest in some Canada geese FUDs.

I have been using FUD's for a long while. out of the box they are no lighter that a half shell but with a little work you can get them very light and use sticks to get them up over any crop height. mine bounce and wobble in the wind, it the wind is strong enough then they also swing to face the wind.

 

I still have a place for the half shells but i use fuds as well.

Never had a good day shooting over static decoys alone. Including fuds.

I've got a couple dozen FUD's (canadas, wigeon and mallard) and had great success with them on the marsh and waters edge. I have not yet rigged them for the river though. Is there an easier way to rig them other than how the manual suggests? The river I shoot on often has 33ft tides and I don't fancy attaching all the anchors and having so much excess line?

 

Somebody suggested chaining them an using a single heavy weight at the end of the line? Any suggestions? Ta

I use FUD's but what do you have to do to make them lighter and move in the wind.

Look in the diy section and find Denny essex posts, he's done this and they work very well
