I was wondering how many Texas rigged decoys y'all carry when you are walking into your spot?

2-3 dozen...in a jet sled.

When I walk in to teal hunt a pasture tank, I carry 18. (that's how many I have on one carabineer.)
If it's a big tank and there are two of us, 36.
Have put out all 60 in flooded rice fields.

Probably don't need any if you're in the right spot.

Robo dove with a teal "sock" and teal painted wings is really the ticket.
(don't tell anybody)

Probably like 3 to 4 dozens teal, another dozen coots and like 1 dozen big ducks.

I never carry more than 18 decoys (regular size) on a walk in hunt, and I let all the sand out of the keel to lighten the load. I do 2 sets of Texas rig, 9 each, sling a set over eack shoulder, clip on wader d-ring.. And maybe a mojo.

You don't need all those decoys, the key is scouting and being on the X. And long walk in hunts I take less decoys.

Back pack decoy bag holds 18, so 18 unless hunting with a partner.
