Nice Light Green-Blending-to-White “Attractor” Ice Spear Fishing Decoy by Leroy Howell (1894-1983), Hinkley, Minnesota, circa 1940-1950. This “Fish” is a classic example of his later work with the addition of a fine blending pattern he developed. This decoy reflects minor wear from use. Howell’s work both in the selection of wood and the sealing before painting maintains durability. The decoy is 5 1/8” in length. Hard to Find Color Pattern.

Unusual Gray and White “Attractor” Ice Spear Fishing Decoy by Vernon Baggs (1925-1985), Kalkaska, Michigan, circa 1950s. Baggs was a rather prolific carver and we have owned a number of his fish over the years. This Decoy is a Good Example of the Form he used with his fish; it was his paint patterns that varied considerably, and this particular pattern is fairly unique. The Decoy is 8” in length and shows minor wear from use.

“Frogs” are among the most collectible of Ice Spear Fishing Decoys. Unfortunately, the name of the Maker of this Michigan Frog, circa 1950, is Unknown to me, but it is highly representative of “Frog” Decoys that were used for Ice Spearing. We obtained this decoy from Art Kimball many years ago and always enjoyed Art’s search for spearing decoys and information about their makers. Note that the back legs merge into a downward sloping fin which would help produce swimming action in the water. This Frog is 5 ¼” in length and displays an Excellent Frog-Pattern Paint.
