Tommorow is the opening day and I was wondering what you guys think is the best early season decoy setup for a logging road? I have two hens, one is a dual position upright hen that can be put in breeding position and a half strut jake which ones should I use and should I arrange them?

I have a lot of luck early on using a hen in breeding position and a jake behind her, like he's getting ready to breed her. My hen is a cheapo foam lookout hen, and I just use half the stake that came with her so she is planted, but on the ground. I put the jake right behind her and that will piss off any mature gobbler to no end.
