Made My Yak A Ghillie Suit.

Labor Day usually kicks off a new season for me, time to get the duck stuff ready. The best part about duck hunting is making new toys for the season that starts a few weeks later. Teal Season opens on 9/11 this year and I spent most of the weekend getting the duck stuff in order. Redid the portable lake blind, put the blind back on the johnboat, and came up with a new camo scheme for the yak. In the past, I have just used some leafy camo and burlap and it worked fine. There are times when I tuck up into grass and reeds and need a different camo pattern. So a trip to the Hobby Lobby for some Raffia, some bungee cord, zipties, and here it is. Removable camo for the weeds, it all comes off on 4 bungee cords and hangs in the shed when not in use for about $10.

Now all I have to do is check the deke cords, charge the robo duck, and head out to some favorite lakes for early teal and bass this weekend. Nice thing about teal season, you shoot them off the lake, stow the guns, fold down the blind and hit the fish.

Pretty cool. I've shot plenty of ducks out of my solo with it done up in a similar way.

I even brushed it up some more since that pic with some more raffia. Teal season was a bust, only got to hunt opening day and storm came in from south. 36 more days till ducks...
