    Was wondering if decoys out night before would put off any resident ducks for the first light?

    If possible put them out night before.
    You say about scaring any off well that's the same thing if you do it in the morning.
    I know which way I would like it to go.
    Plus if the area is good and your decors are good then they will bring them back anyway
