Description: I have been asked to sell a large collection of vintage fish decoys with many outstanding decoys, so look for more I will be selling over the coming weeks and months. This fun-looking large-spotted trout fish decoy is about 7-inches in length and weighs 5-ounces. There is no provenance information available but it has been in the collection for nearly two decades, since 2005. Because there is no provenance information, this beautiful decoy is being sold and priced as a decorative folk art piece rather than as a vintage working fish decoy. While there is some wear and rust on the decoy, it does not appear to be artificially aged and may possibly have been made as a working decoy. The decoy has a brown finished back and sides accented with large greenish spots and darker brown stripes, then a white-painted belly. The decoy has a carved mouth and gill markings, highlighted in red, small black tack eyes, painted metal fins, and a heavily weighted, lead-filled belly cavity. The very top of the wooden tail appears to have a sliver broken off.
