    Homer Decoys...

    Roy- Yes - nice birds. I have Blacks, Mallards and Woodlies.... Masters for these were carved by Keith Mueller. They are one of my stock puddler rigs. And, yes - I just knocked a bill off one of the decoys (in storage!) a week or so ago. Many reinforce the bill with a long galvanized...

    Good morning, Anthony~ WOW!!! I am so envious that you got to spend so much time with Paul! As you will recall, I could visit for just an hour - had to hurry back to East Islip to care for my Mom. My only solace is that Paul and I agreed it was just Chapter 1.... I have not yet visited the...

    James~ A few thoughts.... 1. Dave's suggestion is a good one! 2. I have salvaged a few off "restoration" decoys. I have always liked the style - and ease of installation. Note that one (upper right) pulled off its screw head. So, I always flatten 2 sides of the screw head so it forms a...
