fishcarver Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 If you get a chance, go to the library and check out "Carving Traditional Fish Decoys" by Anthony Hillman. It has patterns and instructions for 17 different decoys, including sunfish, crappie and whitefish. I have few exta copies of the book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman1526 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Many times I have used the small 4" pike decoy red/white and flourescent, from bear creek, heat the tail up and bend the tail more so it spins in a tight circle and keep jerking it. Have gotten alot of nice fish that way. You just gotta be fast with the spear. Something to try when the traditional way of the slow spin don't work.
