Waterfowl Blinds: The Best Way to Conceal Duck, Goose, or Waterfowl Hunters
Introduction
Not long ago, waterfowl hunters had limited options for blinds?"mainly natural cover and the well-known pit blind. Today, however, the choices have expanded significantly.
Natural Cover: The Timeless Choice
Natural cover remains a favorite due to its authentic appearance. Whether you're hidden in cattails along marsh edges, nestled in willow clumps by potholes, concealed behind grasses in flooded timber, or camouflaged in tall grass along slough margins, the goal is always the same: effective concealment. If suitable natural cover is present, you might not even need a blind at all, provided there’s a spot to sit and clear shooting lanes.
Modern Options for Waterfowl Blinds
Goose Chairs
A popular choice among Canadian goose hunters, goose chairs are one-man blinds resembling modified reclining lawn chairs with a hinged goose shell. These blinds blend seamlessly into your decoy spread. Hunters sit back, pull the shell down, and watch for birds through narrow slits. When birds approach, the hunter flips the shell back to shoot. While effective, they can be awkward, especially for older hunters.
Tent-Style Blinds
Modern backpacking tents inspire these blinds, featuring camouflaged nylon stretched over shock-corded aluminum frames. Lightweight and mobile, they offer removable panels for shooting. Effective in deceiving savvy birds, these blinds can feel confining, so they might not suit those who are claustrophobic.
Coffin Blinds
One of the most effective styles available is the coffin blind. Long used in duck hunting, they are now commercially available. These blinds have a low profile, resembling a coffin. With lightweight frames and camouflaged nylon, they feature full-length doors that swing open for shooting. They come with lounge chair-like suspensions that allow slight head inclines, making them comfortable even for long waits. Adding natural cover around them enhances their invisibility to ducks and geese.
Hunting Diving Ducks
For species like canvasbacks, scaups, and redheads, locating dense beds of food plants such as sago pondweed or celery is key. While challenging without a boat, watching from shore can reveal feeding sites. If finding feeding areas proves difficult, position yourself on land points extending into the lake?"effective spots for decoying divers moving between roosting and feeding sites.
Conclusion
The level of camouflage provided by these professional blinds is incredible. Hunters can remain hidden, unnoticed by surrounding waterfowl. After all, effective concealment is the primary purpose of a waterfowl blind, isn't it?
