New decoys for fall 2011

[Dorkfish]

I wanna play too

Dorkfish, I only see one thing wrong with your decoys, they can't see!

decoys dont need to see to be able to bring in fish

[Dorkfish]

[Archerysniper]

Nice pike Dorkfish.

Must be a great feeling having the decoy you carved bring in your fish

Just out of curiosity, unless the tail fin is metal and can be bent, why does it seem that all wood carved decoys rotate counterclockwise? In fact, so do my three plastic (horror!) decoys.

Mine always swim clockwise. It's not something I think about when carving it just happens that way. I'm right handed and when I lay out the pattern the head of the decoy is always to my right. When I sketch out the curve for the tail it's easier to sketch the arc in towards my body. Hold your right hand out in front of you like you're writing and bend your wrist. It's the easiest way for me to draw a smooth freehand curve.

Here's a couple wood tails.
