Description

Macatawa Bait Co. Dragonfly, Green/Yellow w/Box. This is a unique old/early Macatawa Decoy, that comes with the many signs of Macatawa's early baits: belly weight, paint style and the reuse of vintage hardware (the vintage fluted spinner blade). Decoy is about 5" overall. Wooden decoy, glass eyes and metal fins (all brass). Decoy is in amazing shape. The box is crushed on one corner and has an auction house sticker on the bottom. See photos.

Field Notes

This is a collectible surface-style decoy/lure with a vintage spinner blade and topwater profile. It would be used on calm to lightly rippled water where fish can key on surface disturbance and visual flash. The unusual dragonfly/decoy design makes it especially suited to slow casting presentations and collector display rather than everyday fishing.

Pros

  • Unique vintage Macatawa collectible
  • Includes original box
  • Surface presentation with flash and visual appeal

Cons

  • Very expensive collector piece
  • Condition and age may limit actual fishing use
  • Likely niche appeal compared with modern lures
