Fish Decoy ramblings and observations. Antique ice fishing decoys wanted to buy and trade. I'm an active spear fisherman on the frozen lakes of Ely, Minnesota and the Boundary Waters. I buy, sell create and trade fish decoys and vintage fishing lures. You contact me through the link to my website below.

A Find in the Field from Yesteryear
Got a call the other day. "Come look at some trout jigs, can't use em anymore." So off I went. Nothing outstanding to report in the way of wood, but I did find this nice red and white with a smiley face and horse hair tail that is most likely the work of Frank Mizera. With it was a classic William Walden "bullet" lake trout airplane lure in brass. Tagging along for the ride is a rather large unknown black and white cheater decoy that has a trailing stinger. It could be from "LEE's" but I'm not positive about that. So, not exactly what I was hoping for, but nothing to sneeze at either. I was happy and met someone new.
