Inexpensive DIY duck blind

Jay_Disarray said:
I picked up a kayak recently, it's a lifetime Yukon 116 SOT, and I've been trying to figure the easiest way to be able to utilize it for getting into some of the smaller sloughs as well as fishing and floating. I've been in the train of thought of mudding my yak, and just using burlap with grass zip tied onto it, cover myself and the yak. I can just fold it up when not in use. Any tips?

If I had a kayak I’d probably go with something similar to this.

I carry a large piece of burlap camo that I hide my canoe under. I have a couple of pieces of a mojo gillie sheet too. I don’t know if mojo makes them anymore though.
 
I've kinda looked at those kayak covers, and they are cool, but I dunno if I'm willing to go in another $200 tbh.

Beavertail makes a ghillie sheet too I've been looking at. I've got time, kinda mulling over options. duck season is months away. In the meantime I'm working on my battery box and lights, if santa doesn't bring me coal this year.

Not using my blind this morning but here’s my canoe camoed up.

I've used green snow fence and zip tied fast grass to it to cover my kayak in the past. Rolls up pretty easy but is a little bulky when rolled up.

Its not that fancy of an O/U, kinda bought is a beater 28 gauge. ATI Crusader 28 gauge.
Definitely isn't one of my Citoris :sweatsmile:

I'm debating on whether or not to have that gun dipped/cerakote.
Pointer is producing a bottomlands/midnight bronze cerakote 20 Guage O/U. I would really like to find one.
