Jobes' fish

[rfberan]

I got this Fish decoy from Capt. Harry Jobes probably over 25 years ago. I was trying to see if their are others, I know of at least one, but can't find anything even on his website that come up on search. Wondered if anyone had any info on these.

Thanks

Looks old and beat up and is probably taking up room in your shop. I should take it off your hands

 

[rfberan]

You probably should, but I wouldn't want to clutter your home with old junk.

I'm trying to work on my own so we will see how it turns out. Not done much carving.

That fish decoy is really cool. I wish it was mine

I talked to my friend that got his fish and mine. He said Capt. Harry did the fish as a special commissioned item for a regional grocery chain. Wonder how many are out there?
