Anyone ever have any luck using swan decoys to bring in ducks? A number of times I've noticed a "ring" of ducks hanging around swans at Potters March and other places.

Swan deeks
I haven't used mine for a while. But they do work. I even had 2 juvenile swans land and stay while I shot 3 or 4 ducks. Guess they figured mom and dad are staying so will we. They stayed with in 50 or 60 feet for about an hour then slowly swam away.
I have two flambeau ponton perimeter swans. I am thinking about selling them, but maybe I'll just paint them to look like geese.

Ducks like to hang around swans, I assume because the swans can bring vegetation from deeper water and the ducks get the floating debris. You don't need a decoy, just get a low stool to sit on in the water if it is shallow enough, wear whites and hunker down. People have been doing this for years.
