Default Nucanoe-Duck Blind w/ Pics

alright, I finally got time to get make my layout blind for my nucanoe. I didn't like how low the blind was that nucanoe made and I hated the pattern on it. I did some research on blinds for the yak and the tension system seemed to be my best bet. All I have to do is unbuckle 4 buckles and pull it off. Nice and easy.



For the frame I used galvanized rods from hurricane fences, 550 paracord, and quick release buckles.


I made a home made layout chair, (crappy carpenter work), and plan to re do it with padding for a head rest and seat cushion.



The camo is cordura max-4 covers the whole boat. I also bought some layout blind smart weed to dress it up, i'll add natural vegetation to it when I hunt the marshes or flooded river bottoms.

Its secured with elastic rope I bought from the backpacker all the way around the bottom of it as well as some velcro pads stuck to the boat and the fabric.

finished product:

If it weren't for my grandmother (who is a saint) I would have been lost with the cover. She sewed everything and added a hem around the bottom and put elastic parachute cord all the way around it.

can't wait to creep some ducks this season...10 days, 3 hours, and some change for me.
