coots

[Jr hunter]

Does anyone use them in the spread?

[FarouT18]

Nope. Not in AK. I've hunted the lower 48 where they help out. I have yet to see a coot in AK. If you want a awesome confidence decoy get swan decoys.

Agreed, I don't believe coots come this far north. However, I have been in coots a couple times. Bud

[Jr hunter]

Ya I got a couple last year because I was young and dumb to waterfowl ( still am young and dumb) but might use them this year to add little contrast to the set up

[kwackkillncrew]

If your worried they won't work just paint them like a blue bill

Give me a try. Can't hurt and you might get lucky and find out it works awsome

[Duckhunter01]

Agreed.. Anything floating from a black milkjug to a coot decoy should help...

Haha yes I do just got my head in the clouds dreaming of ducks. I'll be down your way scouting and taking the dog out on Monday if that works for you.

[Jr hunter]

Ya I think I'll just throw them in the back of the spread and see how they work if anything I'll paint them. Thanks all.
