    Go Pro footage is hands down amazing, especially for a $300.00 investment…

    Thanks, You also… Yeah basically your response was to hunt an X. I agree 100%. As a side note it is interesting how guys find field “X” but never mention water , Why is that? IDK why, but it sure pays off. I have pulled out and gone to a diff pool blind the next morn many times and set up after light, found em, stamped a mojo or just a cpl decs or even none and killed em. Majority of fowlers hunt “their spot” day after day, all day and that won’t change, ever, in my opinion. It’s the same as Walleyes, fishing a memory or in this case hunting a memory…. Ive had several guide trips that I have pulled the whole spread, “which clients never want to do” and had great results due to the move, other times it does not work out. Sometimes it doesn’t work, but the alternative is sitting over dead real estate, so why not pull out?? To, pull up and re locate is a good effort that more times than not, will pay off, I promise you. Godevil42 is right in my opinion. Although…. I disagree about spinners. Ive spent over $1,000.00 on spinners this yr for good cause, good results and happy clients!!! All of the best waterfowlers and guides I know use them. Heck even my stubborn [censored] Dad uses them for the last cpl yrs. If you knew him you would know what I mean, old school, but its awesome he keeps an open mind now, we both do, always so much to learn… Some states outlaw spinners like PA I believe, and it is because they murder the ducks!! We have both been caught in amazement of the power spinners can have. That doesn’t mean there aren’t times they do not use them. I run 0 to 8. There are a pile of tricks you can use to make them look different. spin different and get diff results. some days it matters which direction you face them and certainly where you put them in a spread. Prime example, today I had a spread 100 plus decs half diver half pud w/ 2 spinners. Spread was 60 yrds wide as its been every day for2 wks. Let me back up, yest i guided same group I had today. they did not want to put decs 60 yrds wide. 1 guy wldnt listen. He thought puds would short us, which they would have if it werent for the spinners positioned where I wanted to control birds, which worked, spinners took care of that as he quickly saw. So, today, same guy sets spinners in same spot as yest. Trouble was Today the wind was nearly 180 from yest, I moved spinners and had a whole flock finish in the “hole” at 20 yrds shortly after and Continued to place finishing gads and mallards in the whole/ boat opening repeatedly this late in the season directly in front of the blind, thanks to spinners and spinners placed in a part of the spread which makes them “work”. It is easy to fool large flocks in early season or that are “new” with spinners. but this time of yr…. its tough. spinners are a huge key tool in my boat, thanks to them my boat killed just over 100 birds at p9 the last two wks in very very tough conditions, there are no X to hunt. stale birds, South winds. warm weather. heavy pressure. tough, its all about using every bit of know how u have, play the wind, talk to em, convince the birds to come in, and cross your fingers. Used from 0 to 8 mojos. Just depend on situation…. Let me ask you, have you ever given a spinner a shot? If so, a fair chance? OOPS!!! I meant this to go to godevil42, sure as heck not retyping it, HA! Goodnight guys, Good luck the last few days!!!!!

    As a general rule, set up where the birds are, then determine wind direction and spread shape. Spinners are great if you have fresh birds. If stale and wise, maybebe pull em all….. Today I had a guide trip on p9. Guys set up 200 yrds down from us. we had 8 opps at cans which were what my clients wanted. killed our bulls, but what i am getting at is the group down from us never pulled the trigger on cans. Horrible spread…. sorry to say but truth…. The birds will tell you what to do by the first fly by, or look by puds….. shift it till you get it right. No matter how many birds in the air or what the case may be, if it aint working, fix it!!!!! Most guys will not, adjust.

    Im still down here guiding for HHO Hideway Hollow Outfitters (Matt Raley). I tell you what, its been tough, I mean we are killing birds, but most are out in the middle. I CANT WAIT TO LAYOUT KILL EM next week when I get home!!!!!So frustrating when they get stale…. I still have 2 days open. This is an experience every waterfowler should do at least once…. Hardcore or beginner, doesnt matter!

    Hmm, yup, Crummy deal… Why do people complicate things for others on purpose??? Too bad it didn’t work out.

    In my experience, anything different is good in a spread. So, is there really a wrong time?? Your “bill” decoys are never a bad idea, a little white in your spread is always good…. An old river rat told me that once.
