Steve O-Hearn on antique lures and decoys

Dave and Andy talk with Steve O’Hern with Hiawatha Estate Sales.  Collecting of vintage fishing lures and duck decoys has become a popular hobby for not only the fishing, hunting and sports enthusiasts, but folk art collectors as well. Although the purpose of the antique fishing lure was to catch fish and the antique duck decoy to bring ducks into the hunter, today they have become a product of folk art thanks to their uniqueness, rarity and beauty.  Steve is an expert/professional appraiser of antique fishing lures and duck decoys.
