Set up looks good! I took a breeding jake decoy and cut off his tail and painted him up like the pretty boy. Cut a slot for a real fan and have called in two longbeards to him and two hen decoys. Got em' both on video....just awesome! I call my deek "Ugly Boy" but he works great. I am sold on the real tails also. Wish I'd have tried it last year.
Yeah, I have a fan of a bird I shot in TX that is going on it. It definately looks much better with the real fan. Mudster, you might want to take the extension out of your buckwings
Jeez Muddy, I've called in and KILLED birds in less time than it must take you to set up that flock of dekes you got out there!!
Good lookin' setup though... I can't imagine any Boss Gobbler in the area allowing allowing a mere jake to even LOOK at such a buffet of babes, let alone get near the one that's willing and "not on stilts"!!
The tom was actually fenced out (out of the decoys anyway). We had a third hunter with us, Murphy, and he brought that dang law.
We watched a hen and tom pace back and forth along a fence for most of last Sunday morning. It doesn't take too high a fence to hold a turkey! How can they be so smart at some times, yet can't figure out that with a hop and a few wing beats they would be over the fence?
