I've been trying to NOT buy one of these things and I've been successful to this point. Diesel PM's me and tells me to make sure I bring mine down east for our hunt Saturday. Says the skeetrs are DC-10 sized, there.
I cover up from head to toe....except for a small area around my eyes. Do I REALLY need one.....for a one-day hunt?
I hate these things.....and I've never used one....lol. To me it's just something else to carry in.
If you were me....would you bother with one for a one day hunt? I WILL NOT use one, here. Any learning curve on how to use one? Easily figured out in a few minutes?
Yes, they are worth their weight in gold. I did not buy one until this year and would have needed a transfusion after leaving Maine if I didn't have one. They are awesome.
We're hunting Bertie County.....near our coast (NC). He's afraid with all the Hannah rain that the skeeters are planning a billion skeeter march.
If it's that bad you'll be glad to have it even if for only one day. I hunted down in Florida right after a hurricane once and thought I was going to get carried away there were so many around. It is $30 well spent.
