ABSTRACT:
The invention is an inflatable portable decoy for attracting geese and other game fowl, in which wind serves to continuously maintain the body of the decoy in an inflated condition, with the decoy body fastened to a portable stake. The invention comprises a shaped stake unit and a wind-inflatable body unit which may be detachably fastened to the stake. The body unit is shaped as an open inflatable bag, made of flexible sheeting, and may be completely wrapped about the stake unit for transport and stowage purposes. Alternatively, the body unit may be a non-inflatable flexible sheet that is attachable to the stake unit and which is flared away from the stake unit by wind action to simulate a decoy body. A looped tie member which may be mounted to the body unit serves to fasten ballast to the body unit in the assembled mode, and alternatively to fasten the body member about the stake member when the unit is disassembled for storage purposes.
