Minnow! Old Folk Art Ice Fishing Decoy antique rope work basket beautifully carvedA charmer of an old ice fishing decoy, in the form of a minnow with some remnants of old paint, including a dark blue eye on one side. About as rustic as an ice fishing decoy gets, which is why I love it. With a carve out for the mouth, and a trail of lead weights along the bottom. 4 7 8 l x 2 t x 1 7 16 w and in good, much used and aged condition, all to the good.
