First off, you might be wondering why anyone would want to use coot decoys in their spread for waterfowl hunting. The simple answer is that many other species of waterfowl will land where there are flocks of coots. This can be a great way to attract flocks of ducks (the tasty ones) into your decoys for harvesting.

How Do I Rank the Coot Decoys I've Used?

As with all hunting gear and decoys there are similar guidelines I use to determine what are the "best" such as:

• Durability

• Cost

• Effectiveness

• Realism (for decoys)

• Weight

• And other factors
