CHINOOK - Jerry Matzen, internationally known fish decoy carver and owner of the Crow's Nest, an Ocean Park shop of eclectic collectables and folk art, is also an accomplished hunter.
"Hunting runs through the family," says Isobella, his 13-year-old daughter, who has just purchased her first deer license after passing the gun safety course taught by LBPD Chief Flint Wright earlier this year.
