Heyday Texas Decoy Rigs

The rigs use a PVC-coated steel cable rather than traditional monofilament or braided line. This material has virtually no memory, meaning it stays straight and resists the twisting and knotting that typically plague decoy setups in the field.

Yes, they are built for durability in harsh conditions. The combination of PVC-coated cable, stainless-steel swivel clips, and hydraulically pressed aluminum crimps provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, making them safe for both freshwater and saltwater use.

The loops are designed to give you a secure, ergonomic grip point that keeps your fingers away from the water and the decoy itself. This allows you to quickly deploy or retrieve your spread without needing to reach into freezing water or handle wet, slippery decoys directly.

The rigs are compatible with most standard decoys that feature a keel hole or attachment point. The stainless-steel swivel clips are designed to snap easily onto standard decoy keels, though you should ensure your specific decoy model has an attachment point large enough to accommodate the clip.

Select a length that is slightly longer than the deepest water you plan to hunt. Because the cable is rigid and tangle-free, having a little extra length is manageable, but you want to ensure the decoy can float freely without pulling the weight off the bottom.

Knots are often the weakest point in a decoy rig and can slip or fray over time. Hydraulically pressed crimps create a permanent, high-pressure bond that ensures the swivel clips and loops stay securely attached, even when you are tossing decoys aggressively or dealing with heavy currents.
