re: Duck decoys

I don't really consider myself a collector but I have about three dozen decoys from many of the lower Plaquemines parish carvers. Had a whole lot more before Katrina and my dad had a whole lot more before Betsy.
I don't really trade them but I rarely miss a decoy show, I enjoy looking at other people's ability to carve them it amazes me.

As a very young kid, I used to watch my Dad repaint his decoys before the hunting season;. He used to crave them himself. All were lost in Betsy.

My collection, also about three dozen, includes one from the Venice area that my brother found in the marsh when he worked for Gulf Oil Company in 1964. I brought it to a decoy show in Baton Rouge but was unable to get the carver identified by the experts. Many of the decoys from Plaquemines Parish are quite old and rather valuable as opposed to the Lafourche/Terrebonne Parishes. The "western decoys" as the experts called the ones from Southwest LA and East Texas are not so much available for some reason.

I live in Plaquemines parish and go to all the shows also.
