Decoy Setup For Hunting Ducks In Fields

Hunting ducks in grain fields is a great way to get away from crowds on public hunting lands and experience some awesome decoying action with flocks of ducks that may number in the hundreds. Once the temperature dips below 55 degrees start scouting near by fields or watch and follow ducks leaving a WMA refuge or roosting area. While it will be tempting to try and sneak ducks after finding them you will be much better of setting up a decoy spread the next morning or that evening if their feeding twice a day.

Tips For Setting This Decoy Spread:

  • We have found spinners to still be effective in fields
  • Place your ducks decoys in multiple directions for realism
  • Blind placement is critical... place your blind(s) in front of the bulk of your duck decoys
  • Place your duck decoys in front and around your blind(s) for added concealment
  • If using shell or full body duck decoys, use motion stakes to get as much movement in your decoy spread as possible
