What is a spearing/ ice fishing decoy?
Spear fishermen from across the USA and parts of Canada make and use these decoys in the winter to attract Large northern pike so they can spear them through the ice from a ice hut or Dark house shelter on a frozen lake or river,,Basically when the Musky or pike comes to see these small wooden hand carved fish decoys the anglers spear them..
Interesting thing about these wooden fish is..
These decoys swim meaning when the line that attaches to the line tie screw is when pulled or jigged the decoy swims and glides slowly decends in a circle representing a injured bait fish..
Not all decoys sold on ebay swim properly,,
But this decoy is a true swimmer and what is called a working decoy...
It had been balanced properly..
And swim tested...
These Wooden fish are highly collectible and are a part of USA AND CANADIAN angling traditions..
Add this decoy to your collection today..
*Shipping to the U.S.A OR Canada will be only $7
I will only charge what it takes to get this decoy to you nothing more..
Thanks for looking and good luck bidding,,,
