Decoys

Cupped Waterfowl carries a range of duck decoys built for realism and durability in the field. The lineup includes mallard decoys, feeder butt decoys in both hen and drake configurations, wood duck decoys, greenwing teal decoys, and Texas-rigged finishing mallard packs. Decoys are available individually and in multi-pack sets designed to help hunters build out a full spread efficiently.

Feeder butt decoys simulate a duck tipped forward with its tail in the air, mimicking the feeding posture that birds display when actively working a food source in shallow water. Adding feeder butt decoys to your spread creates a more natural, confident look that can be highly effective for finishing birds that are working but hesitating to commit. Cupped Waterfowl offers feeder butt decoys in both hen and drake options, priced at $8.99 each.

A Texas rig is a decoy rigging system that uses a weighted keel line attached directly to the decoy keel, allowing the decoy to swing freely on the anchor line and move naturally in current and wind. Texas-rigged decoys reset themselves after disturbance and create more lifelike motion than traditional anchor rigs. Cupped Waterfowl offers Texas-rigged finishing mallard packs pre-rigged with 42-inch lines for hunters who want a ready-to-deploy spread.

The right decoy count depends on the species you are targeting, the body of water you are hunting, and your hunting style. For small ponds and early-season teal hunting, a dozen or fewer decoys can be highly effective. For open water and field hunting for mallards and geese, larger spreads of 36 to 100 or more decoys are common. Cupped decoys are sold in six-pack sets, making it easy to scale your spread incrementally.

Yes. Cupped Waterfowl decoys are designed for the demands of serious waterfowl hunters who set and pull decoys repeatedly throughout a season. The decoys are built to withstand the wear of transport, deployment in rough conditions, and regular handling. The brand is veteran-owned and built around the needs of hunters who depend on their gear to perform every time out.

Some Cupped decoy packs, such as the Texas Rigged Finishing Mallard 6-Pack, come pre-rigged and ready to deploy. Other decoys are sold without rigging so you can rig them to your preferred system. Separate Texas rig lines in 30-inch and 42-inch lengths are available in the Decoy Rigging and Accessories section for hunters who want to rig their own spreads.
