Fowl-Weather Gear

Duck and goose hunters love stuff, and the specialty-gear manufacturers know it. That's why there is a never-ending parade of new products such as motion decoys, realistic game calls, electronic aids for dog training, innovative blinds and boats, and high-tech clothing. Here are five new waterfowling accessories I expect to remain on the market for some time.

Last Pass Goose Decoys from Final Approach
If you're planning to invest in Canada goose decoys, consider the new Last Pass HD Field Honkers from Final Approach. Made of high-density polyethylene, the full-body offerings are especially lifelike, because bronze wildlife sculptor Doug Eck, influenced by waterfowl guide/calling champion Bill Saunders, created them. The feathering, paint and poses make for realistic decoys. Anatomic details in the heads, necks, legs and feet are what you would expect in custom decoys, not injection-molded, manufactured offerings.
