Carl, I know a guide service in NJ once had a boat with scoters painted on the side. He has since upgraded his fleet and I?ve never asked him how effective it was. I?ll try to find pictures
Back in the day [60 years ago] we painted black scoter silhouettes on our layout and plank sided work boats when shooting "coot" on Long Island sound.
Is there anything new under the sun or has it just been upgraded ?
