Table Of Content
Through the decades, North American waterfowlers have devised many decoys and many decoy strategies for luring ducks and geese into close shotgun range. Inventive minds and trial-and-error testing have conjured up decoy systems for almost every setting imaginable.Here, for the first time, is a book that offers a variety of effective decoy spreads from some of the country's most successful waterfowling guides and freelancers. Included are strategies and spreads for hunting ducks and geese in small ponds and marshes, large open lakes, coastal bays, rivers, flooded timber, agricultural fields, and many other waterfowling settings.More than 30 detailed descriptions and diagrams of tried-and-true decoy layouts, plus information on everything from the history of decoy making to modern decoys, styles, sizes, rigging, and decoy movement make this the best how-to-decoy book ever. (6 x 9, 232 pages, b&w photos, illustrations)

    Book was "nearly new" and "as described" in listing. The advertised price was fair and a good value. Unfortunately, the seller's shipping partner was very slow to get the book packaged and shipped. Shipping took too long, and the tracking info gave no reliable info on shipping date, time in transit or expected delivery. Seller did everything right, but their shipping partner needs improvement. I recommend this seller to other eBay buyers....... just make sure you're okay with the shipping terms.

    The listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
