Yep, and the limit was 6.


limit of six was only for a couple of three years in the early 80's. Been five for most part.


When did they open the door to dekes? I recall they weren’t allowed back when the bag was 6 or before then. Was it sometime in the 90’s???


That was the early 2000’s. Think 01. I know I bought a hen decoy when they became legal and stuck it in the back edge of a field where I had roosted a turkey the night before opening day. I called that turkey to the field and as soon as he cleared the brush where he could see that decoy, he was getting the hell out of there, and I had to shoot him in the back. That’s the last time I’ve personally toted one I believe. Never been a big fan of them. It’s about 50/50 whether you get a good response or bad unless you’re in Texas. I guess Rios don’t like other turkeys?? They’ll come from 2 miles if they see one. Quit using them there too.
