Just in time for duck season, Mojo Outdoors has begun shipping its Elite Series Green and Blue Wing Teal. Remote ready via Mojo's USB Multi-Decoy Remote Kit, the decoys are fully plug-and-play. Despite this ease of use, the series still features all working components in a solid, structural housing that is rigidly attached to the support pole, and includes a flexible decoy body. A realistic paint scheme presents finer detail and holds its color, while magnetically attached wings cut down significantly on noise and friction, increasing battery life (4 AAs). For more information on these now-available decoys, please visit mojooutdoors.com. MSRP: $79.99
