Abstract
A collapsible decoy bag utilized to carry hunting supplies/accessories such as water fowl decoys. The decoy bag includes a collapsible, semi-rigid, spring-reinforced frame covered by a fabric shell formed of flexible panels. The fabric shell includes a top cover with drawstring opening to facilitate the loading and unloading of the bag with decoys, a mesh side panel to allow drainage, and a reinforced bottom panel to prevent wear and allow dragging. A shoulder harness is provided to allow a hunter to carry the bag across one or both shoulders like a backpack. In use, the present invention remains upright and open to facilitate the decoy unloading/loading process. The decoy bag is fully collapsible for ease of storage when not in use, and includes snaps for maintaining the collapsed configuration.
