First timer, was wondering if any of you guys had any rubber ducky stories to share. I read one comment about one being worth 10 thou with a LOL attatched. What are some of the prizes that have been won with a duck? Hookem

Last year, was my brothers and myselfs first BassCat OI. We found our duck in the back of a pocket on the 1st morning…it was down past the dam. We won a tackle bag filled with all kinds of tackle. Hard baits and some soft baits. Not bad on our 1st OI tourney. We will try for the motor duck this year. I think its usual a 200 Merc….Not a bad prize for a rubber ducky…..

Free floating and not real big. A couple of years ago they used large ducks to give some of us older folks a chance, as we get older the eyes are the second thing to go. Good luck and see you at the O I pant 2 Bob

A few years back a friend was riding with his partner mid lake and his partner suddenly yelled “DUCK” ! Well, when Paul got outta the floor,,,,after ducking like his head was gonna be removed,,,his partner said,no, “Duck”, and turned the boat around and retrieved the yellow varmit,,,,worth a new Mercury motor ! Thought that was a hoot, but youd have to know Skinner ! D.

The first year for us, the ducks were tiny! There were even little green frogs that would float up into the bushes. Needless to say , I never seen one.The next year after blasting off the first day, I spotted a big ol yellow duck wearing a Navy seamans hat and setting on the end of someones dock by a flower pot. I started to head over and pick it up but I thought for sure it was a decoration . I wasnt going to get yelled at for snatchin someones decoration so I just kept going. Well, that turned out to be the year they used the BIG ducks. This year will be my fifth time down and that is still the only duck I have ever seen on the lake!
