  • EZ-dekes
    Patent number: 9717235
    Abstract: An integrated duck decoy, anchor, and retrieval system. Decoy line passes through a vertical cavity in the decoy body, with an anchor attached to the end of decoy line emerging from the bottom of the decoy. The end of decoy line emerging from the top of the decoy terminates in a loop attached to a stopper, which prevents the loop from entering the decoy body. The decoy may be removed from the water by means of the loop. When the decoy line is pulled from the loop end, the anchor will become recessed into the bottom of the decoy body, facilitating easy storage and avoiding tangled anchors and lines.
