Fishing related Yard Ornaments
What does the typical fisherman decorate his yard with. I got anchor, lighthouse, cement rowboat planter, lobsta buoys, rocks from fishin spots( I make my buddies carry those  ), bass weather vain, st.Frances statue and a couple others.
I like decorating with fishing related plants like Montauk Daisy's, Rosa Ragosa's, and Tall Grass's that also give the yard that beach or coastal feel. I'm always looking for unique yard pieces or focal points, some of the best stuff I have is free.
Whatcha got?? |

My next decoration ideas are: buy the cheapest outboards, stand them up by burying the lower units in the front yard, some upside down with braid wrapped on the props. I'm also thinking about draping peices of fishing net over my bushes and hang clumps on old mono with rusty fishing hooks and old bait boxs. My mailbox will be a old grampa tackle box, once I show the mail man how to open it he'll be all set.

Mary on the half shell or a nice bathtub Jesus statue is nice. I am sure you can get one easily in Nu Beige. To be honest i don't have much nautical stuff in the yard. Some lobster buoys on the shed. I have 2 boats, 2 large herring pens, firewood all over the place, 7 year olds crap all over the place. Not much room left. I could use one of those large colored glass reflecting, gazing balls.  |

What? No pink flamingos? 
I've got some that have been here for years. The kids these days don't even know you are supposed to steal them and put them in someone else's yard  |
