Default Need lite camo material that doesn't absorb water.

Looking for material to build a guillie suit for my kayak, it needs to me lite and not absorb water because it will likely dangle in the water, and when it rains I don't want it to absorb water and become heavy and maybe set it off balance.

Is this to camo you or the kayak ?

If for the kayak, I used some of the mil surpluss die cut camo and painted it for a better look last year on the seak boat

If for you
???
Most I have seen are burlap based , and burlap takes on water

The best thing I can think of would have to be that sythetic grass material. Comes in the normal wheat color, but you can spray paint it do add a little darkness to it.

That military netting works VERY well! Especially here in Michigan, one of the nicest things is you can cut brush from where you are hunting and weave it in....
