I know decoys are getting really expensive and slotted bags are a must. but why the heck do they cost so much! and why dont they make them fit perfect! I have GHG lessers, GHG mallards actives and sleepers. The bags they say to use on these decoys seem tight to me. they work but my mind is telling me to wrap the decoys with plastic bags and then put them in the slots. the condura just doesnt seem soft enough to be the best fabric for the paint. I did find a bag that I really like from the rogers company for my sleepers.the slots are 8x8x14 and the decoys just seem to fit perfect! the avery boys said use the regular FB mallard bag I found out the retracta basees dont fit! why cant ghg/avery have a bag that fits perfect not "tight" not "loose". What are your guys/gals thoughts on slotted bags...

It's funny the more decoys you have and the less space the decs have room to bounce around the less they wear from not being bagged. I used to bag all my decs but it's just not practical to bag 15-20 dozen fullbodies when you're taking them in an out of the trailer a couple of times a day.

Stay away from FA bags they are the worst. I do have about 30 6 slot Hard core bags sitting in my garage that I never took out of the box. They are large enough to fit a hard core decoy with the base attached in each slot.

      My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
