Pit blinds works good too

Pit blinds are The way to go... All our main blinds on the big ponds that are hunted a lot are pits. The pot holes have the barrels.

Next season I'm building half boat hide /blind, did better this year out the go-devil powered canoe than the blinds...gonna stick with this since I'm on private land....going straight to the ducks from now on...and for boat hide I mean roseaus piled and angled just right...tore the pintails up on the last few hunts like this after killing zero pintails the years before.

No problems with them rusting out in the marsh?

You can go to Waste Management or one of the other companies and they have stacks of cans they don't use anymore. Even comes with lids sometimes! They usually don't charge a dime for them.

They last us 8 to 10 yrs unless a storm comes and they get hit hard with salt water. We keep them clean and dry during hunting season then we put lids on them after season is over

Cannot find the construction pictures. They are easy to build and easier to set up in the marsh.

Hated to hear that about your blind Chris... but it was time to try something new anyways.

Chris we use 2 of these pit blinds just south of you. Been having them for over 20 years. A few dollars up front but then you finished with it. Survived both hurricanes with no damage; we lost every other blind we had out there40736976_scaled_336x367.jpg.

Rapides Fiberglass; they'll deliver to ya if you order 2 or more. Great 3 man set up. I do find this blind to be too open over the top. Run separators between hunters and hog wire around blind to angle cane or grass to hide edges. Like using 2x6s to drive on outside to set blind...better than 2x4s.

Got one just like that one G&H in Gueydan about 10 years ago. Still use it on my lease in PI.

We hunt out of an AL floating pit blind. It has ballast tanks all the way around it to add stability. It kind of sticks out a little, so you have to do a good brush job. Other then that, we kill ducks out of it.
