UV Paint

[[Blocked]]

Has anyone tried that Ultra Violet paint on there deks? One of the catalogs I order from has some on sale, but I have never tried it.

Never tried it. I've seen a lot of hunting shows that are really pushing the decoys with the UV paint already on them. I'm thinking about getting a dozen and tossing them in with the ones I already have. I'd try the paint but I can never stay between the lines

I talked with the owner of Get Em Locked Up goose calls and he said that he likes using the paint.  He has noticed a difference on the way the birds act with the decoys that have the paint in PA where he hunts.  Also the hunting shows that I have watched that talk about it seems to make a good case for the paint.  I was thinking about buying some to use if it is not expensive.

Never used it personally but I think I might let you repaint some of my dekes with it and I will let you know how it works.

The guys on "Flyway Highway" use them and constantly mention them through the whole show. They must get paid per time they mention them

My theory is that my grandpaw and my dad used decoys that were painted with non ultra violet paint their whole lives and always killed birds.  I think the reason people are so into all the new things that are made such as robo ducks and now UV paint is because we forget how to hunt.  We meaning myself included would rather convince the ducks that the pond my 5 man pit blind ,with the propane heaters, is located is where the ducks want to be so we set out 200 decoys and 4 robo ducks and use uv paint when in reality if we just scouted and found where the ducks would rather be we could bring a dozen faded decoys and still shoot our limits with ease.  I'm not saying that it doesn't work, I'm just stating the fact that if the birds don't decoy its probably not due to the fact that you didn't go out and spend 25 dollars a can for some uv paint.
