berreta682decoyer Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 hi mate a lot of people wsould tell you 12 to around 30 flocked shells or ordaneiry shells on spring sticks to add a bit of movment the also easy to stack an lightweight carry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedd-wyn Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hi I bought a box of FUD decoys few weeks back, definitely work and easy to carry with you. I also use 5 full bodied decoys for lofting as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispti Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Dead birds Between 10 and 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utectok Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) I like 16 silosocks these days as they are super quick to set up and move well. A couple of hypa flappers on 1/4 steel poles and your done! Not a fan on fuds but shells are good http://www.ukshootwarehouse.com/?cPath=955&osCsid=67b423ca7add6a7b6a0ba38d072e08e8 Edited March 27, 2012 by utectok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tis1979 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Flocked shells, dead birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR1960 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Nothing beats dead birds, but out of the question for most of us. I still prefer my flexicoys, although they're a pain in **** to carry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beretta88 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 upto 30 flocked shells, or dead birds if i have them. floaters, will always have the magnet in the truck if i need it and a few crow decoys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayano3 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Dead Birds would be my No1 choice, but after that Shells and Flexicoy mix. The shells are great for Brussel Sprout tops and taller rape but I dont think you can beat dea birds with their heads propped up for drilling and short crops.
