Abstract: A retrieval system for a duck decoy. The retrieval system comprises a bi-directional motor having an output shaft, a housing and a T-shaped member disposed within the housing and attached to the output shaft. The rotation of the motor causes the T-shaped member to engage a post on the reel causing the reel to rotate in the same direction as the motor and T-shaped member. In this manner, the retrieval system is capable of winding the decoy cord to raise the anchor of the duck decoy. The speed of rotation of the T-shaped member can be controlled by the user.
