A system and method for providing floating decoys is described. The system includes a mechanism for moving tethered decoys in a motion that mimics the natural movement of floating waterfowl. The mechanism includes a motor that moves one end of the tether in a circular, or approximately circular motion along the surface of the water. The decoys then move back and forth on the surface of the water.

1. A decoy system for moving decoys on the surface of a body of water, said decoy system comprising: a first stake assembly for placing in the ground, where said first stake assembly includes a mechanism, where said mechanism includes: a motor having a drive shaft with a centerline, where said motor
1. A decoy system for moving decoys on the surface of a body of water, said decoy system comprising: a first stake assembly for placing in the ground, where said first stake assembly includes a mechanism, where said mechanism includes: a motor having a drive shaft with a centerline, where said motor operably rotates said drive shaft about said centerline, alternatively, through a first half of a full rotation and a second half of a full rotation, anda rotating assembly attached to said drive shaft including a first arm extending generally perpendicular to said centerline, where said first arm includes an element that extends parallel to said centerline and is located at a first radial distance from said centerline, and where said element rotates about said centerline with said drive shaft, anda second arm having a first end rotatably coupled to said drive shaft near said first arm, and a second end extending to a second radial distance greater than said first radial distance;a second stake assembly for placing in the ground;a line in tension between a first end of said line attached to said second end of said rotating assembly and a second end of said line attached to said second stake assembly; andone or more decoys attached to said line,such that said rotating mechanism moves said first end of said line and said one or more decoys in a first horizontal direction towards the first stake, moves said first end of said line and said one or more decoys in a second horizontal direction opposite the first direction towards the second stake, moves said first end of said line and said one or more decoys in a third horizontal direction perpendicular to the first and second directions, and moves said one of said first end of said line and said one or more decoys in a fourth horizontal direction opposite the third direction,such that during said first half of a full rotation of said drive shaft said element of said first arm contacts said second arm and said second arm to rotate with said drive shaft, and said first end of said line and said one of said one or more decoys move in said first horizontal direction followed by said third horizontal direction,such that during said second half of a full rotation of said drive shaft, tension from said line pulls said second end of said second arm in a direction towards said second end of said line, and said first end of said line and said one or more decoys move in said second horizontal direction followed by said fourth horizontal direction, andsuch that when the motor rotates at a constant rate, the first end of the line and said one or more decoys move in a circular motion at an uneven rate. 2. The decoy system of claim 1, where said mechanism moves said first line end in a circular motion. 3. The decoy system of claim 1, where said line includes an elastic portion. 4. The decoy system of claim 3, where said elastic portion includes a spring. 5. The decoy system of claim 1, where said mechanism that moves said first line end in a horizontal plane. 6. The decoy system of claim 1, where said mechanism that moves said first line end in a vertical plane. 7. A decoy system for moving decoys on the surface of a body of water, said decoy system comprising: a line having a first end and a second end, where said first end is attached to a mechanism and where said second end is staked to the ground; andone or more floating decoys attached to said line,where said mechanism moves said first end and said one or more floating decoys in a first direction away from said second end, a second direction opposite the first direction towards the second end, a third horizontal direction perpendicular to the first and second directions, and a fourth horizontal direction opposite the third direction, andwhere said mechanism moves the first end and said one or more floating decoys, sequentially, in said first direction, said third direction, said second direction, and said fourth direction, where said mechanism includes:a motor including a drive shaft having a centerline, where said motor operably rotates said drive shaft about said centerline, anda rotating assembly attached to said drive shaft and including an arm having an end coupled to said first end of said line,such that the first end of the line moves in a circular motion,where said arm is a second arm and where said end of said arm is a second end, where said where said motor operably rotates said drive shaft about said centerline, alternatively, through a first half of a full rotation and a second half of a full rotation, and where said rotating assembly further includes:a first arm extending generally perpendicular to said centerline, where said first arm includes an element that extends parallel to said centerline and is located at a first radial distance from said centerline, and where said element rotates about said centerline with said drive shaft,where said second arm has a first end rotatably coupled to said drive shaft near said first arm, and where said second end extends to a second radial distance greater than said first radial distance,such that during said first half of a full rotation, said element of said first arm contacts said second arm, and said second arm to rotates with said drive shaft, and said first end of said line and said one of said one or more decoys move in said first direction followed by said third direction,such that during said second half of a full rotation, tension from said line pulls said second end of said second arm in a direction towards said second end of said line, and said first end of said line and said one or more decoys move in said second horizontal direction followed by said fourth horizontal direction,such that when the motor rotates at a constant rate, the first end of the line moves in a circular motion at an uneven rate. 8. The decoy system of claim 7, where said mechanism moves said first line end in a circular motion at an even rate. 9. The decoy system of claim 7, where said mechanism moves said first line end in a circular motion at an uneven rate. 10. The decoy system of claim 7, where said line includes an elastic portion. 11. The decoy system of claim 10, where said elastic portion includes a spring. 12. The decoy system of claim 7, where said mechanism moves said first end in a plane that is horizontal to the surface of the body of water. 13. The decoy system of claim 7, where said mechanism moves said first end in a plane that is vertical to the surface of the body of water.
