I don't have a jerk string
Go to Home Depot and buy one piece of 6 foot rebar ($3). Buy a couple of short bungie straps with metal hooks ($5). Buy about 50 feet of dark colored nylon twine ($3). Go to a bait shope and purchase some large spring swivels ($2).
Get some pliers and crimp the metal hook on the bungie cord about 3.5 feet up the rebar so that it cannot slip up and down the rebar. Tie the nylon twine or cord to the other end of the bungie cord and crimp it. Tie three spring swivels on the nylone cord starting about 10 feet from the bungie cord (one spring swivel every 8 feet). On the other end of the nylon cord tie a short piece of dial rod (or some other short piece of wood like small section of a broom handle...something to use as a handle to pull on).
Put a decoy on each spring swivel through the small hole in the keel in which the anchor cord is tied.
Stick the rebar in the water approximately 40 feet from the tree or blind and start jerking...a natural motion for any redblooded American male.
This will be the most inexpensive and effective tool in your duck hunting toolbox, in fields or timber.
I have killed many a duck with just a jerk cord and a couple of decoys tied to it...no call, no other decoys...
