    Hi. A friend of mine is looking for some advice
    on decoying Widgeon. Is there a best time for
    it? How do you identify a good location?
    Any ideas appreciated.

    all depends where your living where i am theres good flood water
    if ya want to no if theres duck on it just go look or go at night and bring a lamp yal see them get up
    dont bring a gun though its illegal to lamp them
    as for decoying i just throw them out and hope for the best and give a blow on the caller

    try different decoy patterns. try C U or J formations . Also make sure you have a space between your decoys called a landing zone for the ducks to land in. Ducks will not fly over decoys to land
    Always be prepared to change your approach if birds are flying into decoys and getting spooked .
