According to the django docs (1.4 / 1.5), the default manager for subclasses of PolymorphicModel should be PolymorphicManager: 3. The default manager on a class is either the first manager declared on the class, if that exists, or the default manager of the first abstract base class in the parent hierarchy, if that exists. If no default manager is explicitly declared, Django’s normal default manager is used. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/db/managers/#custom-managers-and-model-inheritance https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/db/managers/#custom-managers-and-model-inheritance
