To the guys who posts as snowgoose: We talked before about your interest in buying some Sportplast collapseable snowgoose decoys and how you might want to buy ours when we upgrade. Well the time has come so I wanted to offer them to you first. We have 4 dozen that have been painted with UV paint prior to last springs hunt, we have improved stakes for them and a bag that holds all 48 and is easily carried by two guys.

Respond to this post and tell me how to get a hold of you.

I couldn't PM you otherwise I would have. Also, I posted this earlier today and for some reason it did not work.

Stayman,

What do you think of the sportplast decoys. Been thinking of buying 3 or 4 dozen honkers to fill in with my full bodies and outlaws. Do they fill out fairly nice after being stuffed in a bag. Any input would be appreciated.

We actually really like them. They're a great decoy for the price, lightweight but a little bulky compared to a shell. They do fold down and pop out pretty easily. Quick set-up. The only reason we are selling is the group is investing in full bodies and the new 5/8 shell by greenhead gear. We did find the stakes a little big to push into hard ground so we swapped them out for some metal ones. If the birds are smart enough to tell the difference I'm not going to be able to shoot them anyhow. If I did any field hunting for dark geese I'd buy them.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • 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!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • 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.
