Who makes the best looking Gaddie decoys? Every one I have seen usually has a yellow looking spot on it's back and I can't recall seeing any gadwall with a yellow spot.
That yellow spot you are referring to is the scapular feather group and every gadwall drake has it. You just ain't been lookin

I like the look of those so I'll look into that. What do you guys think about feather lites? I bought those about 5 years ago and did not like them. And wouldn't waste my money on nice gaddies, they will decoy just as good to cheap mallard hens. I would put that money into nice mallards and pintails instead. I have a mind like a steal trap and you have been trapped Sir. I seem to recal you reffering to me as Cheap for using Ace hardware weedeater line rather than the way overpriced 4 foot 400 pound segmented line. Please feel free to try and recover but you know you got busted. So far as GHG gadwalls, I think they are awesome. Not needed but awesome. Dang Wayne you trapped me good, there is no escape. Sometimes I'm cheap, sometimes I'm not. I like the SNL precut, strait 48 inch lines. Can you get that with ACE Weedeater line? Nope. The precut straight lines are worth it to me right there. Also, The SNL 4' precut decoy line is $12.50 for 200 lines (800 feet), that is about 6 cents each, or about 75 cents for a dozen. I bought that so long ago, I cannot even remember, maybe 5 years ago? And I still got a lot left. So not sure how being cheap here is going to buy me much. Your Aces Hardware line, looks like it comes in red or orange , is $39.99 a roll , and is only 665 feet, I'm I reading that right? http://www.acehardware.com/product/index...1327540.1260415 No you are not reading it right. I use the clear .095 I can tell you there are a lot of people on this forum whom were against it. After using the ace line they relented and said they liked it better than mono. Now so far as your price reference, it makes no difference because it was you all calling me cheap not the other way around. I was calling your call and raising you a call.:)

I started using this exact same Ace line last year and LOVE it! Stole the idea from Wal. I doubt I'll ever use anything else on my Texas Rigs. Great find, Wal!
