Captain Bob Jobes

Was born in Havre de Grace, MD, nationally known as "The Decoy Capital of the World".

Bob is the oldest son of Captain Harry R. Jobes of which all carve decoys for their livelihood, and are nationally famed for their creativeness of wooden decoys.  Bob produces miniatures to full size decoys.  His shop is located at 721 Otsego St., which is the original Jobes Home.

Bob started carving at a very early age with his father at R. Madison Mitchell's Shop.  After many hunting trips for ducks and geese, the realistic beauty of the real birds was brought to his attention.  He now has his own style and techniques and produces over 22 species of decoys for you to collect and enjoy.   He also specializes in lamps, pen sets, shore birds and award plaques.  Stop by his shop to see how decoys are produced the old fashioned way.
