Duck blinds?
 

hey i was wondering if anyone had any ideas how i could make some quick and easy duck blinds for my boat or even something on land that is inexpensive.

We use winter snow fence (Black in coluor, not orange like construction uses), then tie rap slates every 2-3 feet and weave in appropriate materials.(ie cattails, reeds, grass, straw or willows) We also attach a the camo berlap on the rear portion to help conceal and especially nice when you lose some of the wooven materials. We use this on land and have in a duck boat as well (although it required some extra support on the top, just a 1X2 was good enough for our needs). Nice thing is you just roll it up and tie it with some rope for transporting. If you can' t find snow fence, than chicken wire or similar will work as well. I would spray the chicken wire with a flat black alum. paint prior to weaving the materials on. Glare has killed many a good setup, why chance it!!!

Pretty simple, cheap and IME quite effective.

I have made 3 different blinds for my 14 foot jon boat. I have steadily tried to improve the blinds as well as the efficiency of them. I have used everything from half inch pipe with a fast grass set-up to plastic tubing. If you' re interested drop me an e-mail and I' ll get more specific.
