Heritage Series Delta Marsh Canvasback

Heritage Series Wooden Delta Marsh Canvasback Decoy

The Heritage Series Delta Marsh Canvasback is a wooden canvasback decoy for the man who understands why a working bird can matter beyond the spread. Its long-backed body, low waterline, and horse-head profile carry the old Delta Marsh style into a decoy that can be hunted, displayed, and studied.

The form belongs to Delta Marsh on Lake Manitoba, where James Ford Bell's camp and early waterfowl research helped shape what became Delta Waterfowl. Bell loved canvasbacks, and the rigs tied to that marsh drew from Heron Lake influence and Duncan Ducharme's work. The result is a decoy shape waterfowlers still recognize: hard lines, a centered head, and a bird made to ride the water with purpose.

In collaboration with Delta Waterfowl, this historic decoy design is being brought back to life for the modern hunter. A portion of proceeds goes to support the mission of The Duck Hunters' Organization™, carrying the work of waterfowl conservation from the marsh into the present day.

This Heritage Series piece belongs in a diver spread, on a shelf in the off-season, or on the table where the story of North American waterfowl conservation is still worth telling. It is not a costume object. It is a working shape with a memory.
