Beavertail decoy hauler sled from Cabela's....got one last season and don't know why I ever had a decoy bag....I have the one with the bag attached and love it....wading in, you can put guns, shell bag, and chairs/camo in and walk without having to carry anything.....best $100 I spent in a long time.....

I got one a few years ago from wing supply. I paid $20 for it on close out. Definitely one of the handiest pieces of gear i own. FYI mine looks almost identical to the lowes tub except for the color.
