Why are you bagging TX rigged decoys? That's one reason I like that rigging system - I don't have to deal with bagging them. Clip them on a carabiner and they are good to go. If the lines are too long, just tie a loose overhand knot with all of the lines.


Not sure about the OP but sometimes I have to walk 500+ yards with 3-4 dozen decoys in two big decoy bags as well as gun and blind bag. That would be impossible without decoy bags keeping them in check. I guess you could do like those 3rd world water carrying guys and use a stick over the shoulder..LOL.

I recently started using a jet sled to help solve the transportation issue. It makes my life much easier. It's durable, and pretty stable. I've pulled it behind me over land and water without any issue.



Holds 3+ dozen decoys, gun, blind bag, etc... all pretty comfortably.

I have a nylon decoy bag with shoulder straps (cheap but works)...cut a hole in the middle of the bottom...stick the carabiner through it with the dekes hooked on and pull the bag down over the dekes...then close the bag...hook the carabiner back on the shoulder straps and ready to go...

I am slowly coming to the conclusion that for walk-in hunting, the traditional rigged decoys are best. You have to be able to put your dekes in a bag if you have to walk any significant distance, and getting the tx rigged dekes in a bag is more of a pain in the arse than just using the old school rigging system. Also if you have to drag a yak through any real brush you also need your dekes in a bag or they'll all start getting caught in shite and pulling off (at least for my sit on top kayak). With a pirogue or sit in it's not as necessary tho and you can go with the tx rig with no bag.
