im talking about water motion not spinning wing motion lol i have mojos and use mojos and i believe in them i put out 4-5 each hunt and usually i am the only one killing around me i hunt a open lake though no marsh i just want something to keep a hole open if it decides to ice over ever again like this year but on the no wind days id like something to keep ripples in my spread that draws them in more then anything and i usually hunt by myself and i do run a jerk cord but its hard to jerk the cord, call, and get ready to shoot and i usually dont stop calling till they are a few inches from the water

Wonder ducks

I am definitely going to snag some motion decoys for next season. Tired of working the jerk string.

I'm probably going with the Higdon Pulsator or swimmer, maybe both.

When you guys use the butt up Pulsators, do you worry about water depth for realism? I mean, do you try to put them where it's shallow enough for birds to actually feed?

ive used wonder ducks before with my buddys so im deffently buying one or 2 this year and the pulsator 2 looks good we hunt in knee to shin deep water so thats about perfect for a duck to feed in

You huntin on the Houla?

yea

If you hunt a permanent blind/spread, you might look into a wakemaker.

Only thing you have to worry about is some fool runnin through the spread and tangling all those lines up

depends on water depth!

You can set that line close to the bottom where they shouldn't tangle too bad, unless there is a ton of grass like everywhere I hunt!

yea i thought about that but to many dumbasses out there that run threw peoples spreads and i dont want my dog tangled up in it

The Higdon pulsators are nice and easy and self-contained. Mallard machine is awesome with a remote. On quiet days it's loud to leave running. The wonder ducks I have seen lately look good but fuck the D batteries. Jerk strings are awesome but deep water the dog stays in it and it's a pain in the ass if you in the boat... but by far the most realistic. When it's really still we will use one if it's needed.
