So I need to replace one of my slot bags and purchased an avery 6 slot bag because that's what I had before and I can get at the local sporting goods store. Unfortunately I found out that they do not have the anchor pockets in them anymore. I have some keel less mallards that the anchor pockets work great. Does anybody know of a slotted decoy bag that still has the anchor pockets in them?
 
Steve, That is Davids old web site that still comes up. New site is www.canvasbacks.net or www.estuaryduckboats.com
I missed you at the South Shore Duck Boat Show. I wanted to meet you but I was told you had left already. I am going to the decoy show this winter, hope to see you there.

Dianes custom decoy bags. You can find them on ebay or.
www.customdecoybags.com.

I have both Dave Clarks and Dianes, both are of good quality. Dianes are a little stiffer, a little easier to get the decoys in. My last 4 bags have come from Diane.
 
Dave Clark's bags are the best ones out there. He just made me 3 custom bags of varying sizes. They came out beautiful. His canvas work is outstanding; second to nobody.
 
Thanks, Phil~

Sorry I missed you at Cedar Beach. I left midday - to deliver decoys, perform a "duckboat consultation", and do some chainsaw work at my Mom's.

I will definitely be at the LIDCA Show on March 3. In fact, I'll be putting up a notice of the 2018 Contemporary Decoy Exhibition here soon.

All the best,

BIll,

Are Dianes bags sewed on the bottom of the pocket so I can just drop the anchor in and it will stay in the pocket and not slide around to other pockets getting tangles up with the other anchor lines?
 
Diane’s bag typically are not sewn to bottom. They can be ordered that way. What i do is cut camping foam pads to fit tight across all slots. This helps keep weights in correct slot mostly. The bags i have from Dave are sewn down. The foam i then cut for each slot.
 
I don't have any of Diane's bags but have heard good things about them. I do have two of Dave Clark's bags and they are excellent.
 
Neal,Diane advertises custom decoy bags. I am sure she can make them anyway you want. You can contact her on her site or facebook.
 
I have 8 bags from Diane, all sewn down pockets and mesh bottoms. The oldest are from 2006 and still going strong. You can order whatever you want although her standard stuff is more readily available. I have both standard and magnum bags, all 12 slot.

The photo is from this week, that eider bag is from 2006.

I have never seen Dave's bags but have only heard good things.
