Abstract:

The waterfowl decoy support is formed of a length of stiff rod configured to support a ballasted flotation-type decoy above a land or water surface. The decoy support may have an elongated upper slot adapted to slide over the keel of the ballast weight of the decoy, or may have an upper support arm extending from the upper end of the rod, the uppermost end of the arm terminating in an eye. The eye provides a non-rigid connection to an eyebolt or the like secured to the back of the decoy, allowing the decoy to move in the wind. The lower end of the rod either may have a spike for insertion into the ground or a generally horizontal loop for placement on the surface of the ground.
