Looking for a used decoy sled . I don't waterfowl but was thinking that one of the bigger sleds would be good to hook to my yak to get my gear in and my stag (hoping) out .

I dont' think I've ever seen one that looks like it would float and track well enough for that. A second, smaller yak would probably tow better. How big a yak are you using, mine is only 14' and I've had me, stand, gear, gun/bow a stag and a hind on it before and never had a problem. You do need to learn to be okay paddling with a gutted sika on your lap though.  |

Those small cockpit yaks are tough. Mine has two seats and a bigger opening, although you could only fit an adult and a child in it for the two people. I put the bag on the back seat, strap the stand on that and the bow/gun on top that. For one deer I'll shove it up under the front deck and squeeze my legs in, if I have a second I'll strap it on the back deck or over the stand and under the bow.
Depending on how far you've got to paddle, try leaving it whole until you get back to your truck, tie the deer off and float it back. A buddy did that this year in DE with a big whitetail, only way he could get it back out with his 12' yak.

I know that big fox had a sled that I used as a boat to get to an island & pull my carolina skiff out of the mud sika hunting one time.

Yep - I remember the big jolly fellow too. Once I got the boat close enough, he did sort of act as a reindeer too.
