Input on motion decoys

[Ray]

I picked up during the split and left them in the blind. I had a 3 man fiberglass blind.

The magic number depends on the size of the pond.
The more new ducks that come down, the better chances you have of killing the dumb or younger ones.

I never picked them up between hunts. It was too much. I moved them around in different patterns during the second split. I picked up most of the big decoys and left the coots and teal for last. That worked best for me.
