In my defense I thought it was sort of the same thing. But I intend to use Tef-gel if I can find it.

Thanks all. And I should probably not assumed that everyone knows what a ducker is. It is small and portable. Picture a 12’ rowboat 10” deep and 4’ wide. Hence the desire for a small battery.

Stainless steel and aluminum have a chemical reaction over time and will corrode and seize.

Part of my Alcatraz (giant grey rock on my fishing boat for open water hoping to find some really dumb ducks) built involves putting snaps all the way around the boat, similar to how a cover maker would install them. Tips before I start drilling holes all over the sides of my boat? Drill...

Good news is I have two boat blinds to build and several keels and decoys to finish.

Makes me want to burn mine after seeing these. Very nice.

There is one on Facebook marketplace right now in Akron, OH area.

I have developed an unhealthy obsession with making all my decoys “mine”. I have these six Herters burlap decoys in original condition. Some wear. They are part of my big water rig. I’m fighting the urge to carve wood heads and repaint them. In part because I have so many other things I...

I do actually have a place to get spruce. I can have it cut to any thickness I want. Thank you.

Since we are talking about premium Millertech is king in my region. Nothing like pulling up to the factory for a consultation and seeing a horse and buggy line. But man they know their stuff.

Wow what a great response! You might be on to something with the 50aH for my use. The boat is primarily a row boat and if I get stuck I just have to put the effort in. They are on sale right now as well. I wonder if they will work in the cold. I have the $1000 smart battery for my fishing...

Thanks Eric. I’m pretty sure I learned that here. Since I do internal weighted keels it was a lot of screw holes in the bottom of the decoy by the time I got done. Since shifting to cork this year I find the balance point to be more predictable, and I noticed that the all wood decoys my...

I have a small trolling motor that I mount on my Ducker and want to get a small lightweight battery for it. I have a very expensive high quality 24 volt lithium battery in my fishing boat and it is great and lightweight. But I am wanting a small 12 volt for my ducker. It will get very little...

No every part of decoy making is my favorite. I really find making the weighted keels tedious and put it off as long as I can. The weighted keel serves several purposes. It helps the decoy track in line in rough water and keeps it from flipping over. It makes the decoy self right when...
