I tied some jigs. Gave up on it last year when I did 10 months of home remodel and got my decoy business going. Tied up some jigs last week and forgot that I enjoyed it. Hope to keep on tying and fishing this year

Welcome back Swampy - was just thinking about you the other day. Jigs are looking good and glad to see you still got it. ;) Those decoys are beautiful!

Welcome back. The jigs are very nice and the ducks are AWESOME!! I have a duck-head cane I need to send you to paint the mallard head, let me know if you would be interested in painting it.

EXCELLENT color combo's on those jigs! Good looking ties! The decoys are FANTASTIC!! CNC carved?

CNC???? Heck no they were all sawed out on a bandsaw and then hand carved.

canvasbacks were carved with a drawknife, spokeshave and a fine pattern makers rasp. the mallards were done with a hand held rotary rasp. Kind of like whittling but at 10,000 rpms.:D

Central IL is the land of duck carvers from old days... Fine looking ducks! Cans are killer! Plus the jigs look great
