Mallard Hen Sounds: A Core Waterfowl Calling Tone
Mallard hen vocalizations are a staple of many waterfowl calling strategies, and a call tuned for that sound profile can be useful when:
Birds are working the decoys and responding to subtle calling
You want to add natural cadence to a mixed call sequence
You need a familiar “go-to” duck tone for general situations
Hunting pressure calls for more controlled, realistic sound
The Duck Picker is marketed around mallard hen sounds, making it a natural fit for hunters who want a call built around one of the most recognized duck sound profiles.
Double Reed Design for Consistency and Control
This call is listed as a double reed, a format many hunters prefer for its balance of realism and ease of use. Double reed calls are commonly chosen because they can:
Offer a more forgiving airflow for many users
Provide a natural, raspy character depending on technique
Help maintain consistent tone in changing weather conditions
Support controlled calling at close-to-moderate distances
Whether you’re learning cadence or refining your sound, a double reed call can be a dependable option for repeatable performance.
Orange Polycarbonate Body: Durable and Easy to Spot
The orange polycarbonate construction gives this call two practical advantages:
1) Tough, field-friendly material
Polycarbonate is commonly used in outdoor gear because it can:
Resist impacts and rough handling
Handle wet environments well
Clean up easily after muddy hunts
Maintain performance across temperature shifts
2) High visibility
The bright orange body can make the call easier to locate:
In low light at dawn
In a blind bag or gear pile
If dropped in grass, mud, or the bottom of a boat
During fast-paced calling and movement
For many hunters, visibility is a real-world benefit—especially when gear gets wet, cold, and cluttered.
Versatile for Marsh, Timber, and Open Water
A mallard hen-style call is widely used across different hunting environments. The Duck Picker fits naturally into:
Flooded timber and wooded sloughs
Marshes and potholes
Backwaters, creeks, and small ponds
Open water spreads when a classic mallard tone is helpful
Effectiveness always depends on local bird behavior, weather, hunting pressure, and how the call is used.
