thedeadsea Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I have speared for years but had never speared over a custom made decoy until this weekend. All I can say is there is a HUGE difference in action from the hardware/sporting goods store bought decoys. I guess the guy who made this decoy has won many awards with his decoys. I know one day doesnt make a trend but the fish sure seemed to agree on Saturday. I'm sure many of you already know this, but wanted to save some time for the guys who haven't had that opportunity yet. Now I know what I am asking for Christmas next year Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but for some odd reason Ive had most of my luck with the bear creeks, n I agree a handcarved decoy swims 100% better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadsea Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 The decoy was made by Joe Zupancich of Ely. If you use a search engine he's on a couple of different pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
