This method of hunting has gone back thousands of years, and today the collection of antique decoys is huge amongst sportsman and hunters. Roe “Duc Man” Terry is one of the finest decoy craftsman around today, whose decoys sell for thousands a piece. Carvers like Roe use their decoys to hunt over, but have become known for the artistic craftsmanship they put into each bird. Roe tells his story, over 50 years of carving and learning from the great master carvers of the eastern shore.
