Part of our Macatawa Arizona Collection.  What we believe to be the largest privately owned and historically important Macatawa Bait and Tony Smith collection to ever be put up for sale.  Just under 300 items that will be individually sold and passed on to a new generation of caretakers and collectors.  These items trace back to the early days of duck decoys to the beginning of the Macatawa Bait Company and all the way up to more recent offerings including many custom ordered one of kind decoys and lures.  Many of these items have only been sold once and have never changed hands and may never come up for sale again in your lifetime.  Now is the time to add some amazing pieces to your collection.
