Field Notes

This is a collectible antique spearing decoy, not a modern casting lure. It is intended for display or collection use rather than active fishing, and the included box adds historical value. The salamander form and early Macatawa styling make it a niche item for antique lure collectors.

Pros

  • Rare early Macatawa collectible
  • Includes original box
  • Strong display appeal with glass eyes and metal feet

Cons

  • Not intended for modern fishing use
  • Condition shows age and wear
  • Very niche collector market
