ABSTRACT:
Defined is a buoyant, full-bodied decoy for land or water use having top and bottom shells of blown-moulded plastic joined together by an interfitting joint, and maintained so joined together by a shaft component of a shaft-stake keel member. The shaft carries an articulating head. The stake is pivotable relative to the shaft. In land use, the stake is imbedded vertically in the ground for a standing or sentinel position, and at an angle for a feeding position; in water use, the stake is retracted to its swimming position. The stake keel constitutes a counterbalancing weight below the water line to maintain the decoy stable.
