Six Vintage Ice Fishing Decoys–NY State

Description

These six New York State Ice Fishing Decoys were purchased as a lot from a long-time collector in his 70’s at the time and living in upstate New York.  He was a labor negotiator and traveled all over.  He mainly collected Mason decoys and NY state duck decoys and fish decoys from Chautauqua Lake region.  The big pike is 13″ and the bass is 12″ and the others about 8″.  Some have leather fins and others have metal fins.  All are very heavily weighted, way more than the many other fish decoys in my collection.  Moving south and all my toys must go!!!  They have been in my game room since 1977.  I have many fish decoys, but these are my favorites.  (I will not break up this set–they are “bonded!”)   🙂
