Bigfoot goose decoys storage( or other decoys )

[Sebaz]

Hey everyone
Just wondering what everyone does with there decoys for storage?
Right now we are bagging all the decoys in individually in pillow cases after each hunt
I see some ppl online that are buying inclosed trailers for them ( don't have that many....Yet...)

Any advice would be great
Thanks

Bigfoot's are a piece of cake. They dont require any special care. We never bagged ours and they held up fine. My GHG's though were a different story, got sick of bagging them so I sold them all and went back to Real Geese silos!! My hunting partner is running Dakota lessers, no bagging them either! We just leave the stands on them and hang them from hooks on the trailer ceiling and walls.

Here is our set up.....the boxes underneath the layouts are full of shells and silos

Just throw them in the trailer.

Have had to bag averys and ghg due to flocking. We went to doa decoys last year and you can forget about bags. You pay for them in purchase price level without a doubt

I take reasonable care and do not abuse my decoys but I don't baby them. If the birds are close enough to notice the scratches etc. they are well with in range and maybe to close.

My mom has left 6 of them outside all year long for the last three years and they haven't even faded, LOL! I just dump and pile mine into my trailer.

It's a Stealth 6x12 pointed nose. Gives an extra two feet up front.

I have an enclosed trailer that they stay in year-round. I do "sock" the heads and necks before packing them back in the trailer after using. Not sure if it does much but supposed to keep the flocking from rubbing off.

What is the biggest decoy bag they make for bigfoots
Maybe to be able to put 6 decoys into or something without taking to much apart or if needed to I guess ???

Bigfoots don't need bags....

 

[Sebaz]

I'm just thinking for faster transportation I don't have a enclosed trailer yet and I don't think I can convince my wife I have tried
Maybe next year ..
So I have to take them out of my utility trailer all the time
I was just thinking. Grabbing a bag of 6 and hanging them in the shed would be faster then 2x2 and putting them onto the shelfs

Lots of bags available...about 50 a piece.

Rig em right makes bags that'll fit the big foots with stands attached

Tie the feet together and carry with the rope

Slide your arm thru the legs of 2 decoys and hold a 3rd in your hand.....6 decoys at once.

That is how I used to carry mine when setting up. Wasn't any more inconvenient than a 6 slot bag and was a whole lot cheaper!
