A duck decoy device with a hollow body joined to a base with an interior u-shaped housing. An insert has a platform capable of partial disassembly. The platform has a left half and a right half that are selectively divisible. The platform also has a front platform and a rear platform that are pivotal and divisible. A collar selectively joins the left half to the right half. A spool with line is removably contained between a pair of stilted arches, one of each stilted arch disposed on each of the left half and the right half. The stilted arches are selectively disposed within the u-shaped housing. A weight with surrounding shell is selectively held and alternately released from the insert, and is fastened to the insert via the line. The insert provides for the decoy to be serviceable and to have various parts repaired and replaced.
