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.

The Fish Decoy Chronicles Post One
I've been putting this off long enough since I had planned on starting long ago. I don't know what to project onto this space, because that's not how creativity sneaks out of you. I like folk art lures and decoys. I've been in the antique business since I was a kid, when I opened our first shop in rural Illinois with my parents. At ten I sold my first piece, a heavy old stove I bought at an auction for 3 bucks while my dad wasn't watching. :) It sold for $30 and I was hooked. Speaking of hooked, the love for antiques and history led me eventually to collect and then to create. Sometimes people like to share their fondness for this kind of thing. Occasionally we like to compare and learn about other collectors passions. So... reader beware... fishing decoys is what you're in for.
