The Blackwater FUD® (Fold Up Decoy) is the result of a challenge to find the best decoy for game bird hunting in terms of versatility, ease of use, ability to attract game, and value for money. The FUD® competes fully with the silhouette, shell, and full-body decoys, with functionality, less weight, and less bulk as its driving forces. Field tested in Australia and capturing over 70% of the decoy market there, FUD\'s® are now available for the first time to Northern American hunters.
FUD® decoys are among the lightest decoys produced, weighing less than a third of normal floaters. Even the FUD® goose decoys weigh less than one pound! However, hunters must also consider the anchor when evaluating the total weight of their rig. Due to the construction and materials used for the FUD® decoy, the size of the anchor required to maintain its position in the water is far smaller than conventional decoys. The result is a decoy so lightweight that you can now carry many more decoys than before with much less effort!
FUDs® come fully assembled and ready to use with the rivets and stake already in place. The only preparation might be to attach a string and anchor, if desired. FUD® decoys work best when used with our lightweight FUDanchors™ and FUDline™ anchor line, available as accessories. When ready to deploy, all you need to do is unfold them, adjust the head and keel for the desired posture, and toss or place into position.
