A waterfowl decoy stand has an elongated base, a buoyant material attached to the top of the elongated base, and one or more studs attached to the top of the elongated base. The elongated base has a top, a bottom, a first elongated portion having a first end, and a second elongated portion having a second end. An angle formed by the first elongated portion and the second elongated portion is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees. The one or more studs extend above the buoyant material for removably retaining a waterfowl decoy.
