The Duke Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 So this is my second season wildfowling, and i would like to try my hand at some decoying but i was wondering which type of decoys would be best? Do you need a large pattern of decoys? if so then the shells and fuds are goin to be quite cost prohibitive for me, so have been looking at the texas rags which seem very reasonable at £36.00 for 50 any advice on the decoying of geese would be alot of help, Regards.

mudpatten Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 What species of goose are you after mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildfowler12 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) My advice, go for Texas rags and get at least 1 box of FUD's. You'll get good movement in the pattern from the rags, and you can't beat the photo realism from the FUD's Let me know where your getting the rags from because that's a great price! I could do with going halfs with you haha Edited September 22, 2011 by Wildfowler12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildfowler12 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) I rang Kev earlier but he wont have any in for a couple of weeks yet. They're about £22 for 10 though, I'm amazed at £36 for 50! Edited September 22, 2011 by Wildfowler12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duke Posted September 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 The geese in the areas i shoot over are mainly pinks and greys feeding on the grasslands at the edges of the estaury. Wildfowler12 i've PM'd you the place for the rags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAdaam Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 I'd also be interested in buying some of them rags. Could I get a PM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Noticed the ones on Tidepools site but the only cheap ones i can find for 50 are at Cabelas.. Do these come with stakes or do you have to purchase seperate, never used them before but got to be easier then carrying the full shells around... If you also dont mind letting me know where you can get them from over here cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenntay Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 just remember you need a decent bit of wind for texas rags to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
