Jet Sled
Jet Sleds are an often overlooked but essential piece of waterfowl hunting gear, especially for walk-in hunters. In tow, a Jet Sled allows you to carry a hefty amount of decoys and gear without breaking your back. And best of all, they float, allowing hunters to go between land and water with ease until they reach their spot to set up. Currently on sale, this is a no-brainer for anyone looking to make walk-in hunts easier this season.

If you plan to spend any amount of time traveling and hunting this season, a good hard-sided case is essential. This double shotgun case from Plano works as a TSA-compliant hard case for traveling with firearms and has three locking points. The internal foam liner also protects your guns from banging around during transport, ensuring they work as intended when it’s time to hunt. Priced at just $49.98, it is also one of the most affordable hard-sided cases you can find.

BX-2 Alpine HD Binoculars 8x42mm
Practically every time we hunt, we find ourselves reaching for a pair of binoculars in our blind bag. They are excellent tools to ID birds that landed just out of range, or scout other likely areas. That said, it’s important to bring the right pair of binos. These Leupold BX-2 Alpine HD 8x42mm feature quality glass, a small frame, and a lightweight overall package, making them the perfect addition to any blind bag.
Zulu HDX Pro Binoculars 14x50mm
For those who are constantly on the road scouting for birds, there’s no better pair of binoculars than the Sig Sauer Zulu HDX Pro Binoculars. These image-stabilizing binos allow you to easily identify good feeds and pick out birds down to the species level without the need for a tripod and spotting scope. The 14x50mm objectives also offer ample magnification to spot birds at a distance, eliminating the need to own multiple optics for different scenarios.
Edge 4 Cellular Trail Cameras
For those with access to private water or a secret duck hole, consider adding cellular trail cameras to monitor the migration. A pair of cellular cameras, like the Moultrie Edge 4 can be hung on a tree or a stake giving you realtime data on how many birds and what species are around. This Black Friday, the two-pack is on sale for just $149.98.
