Goose Layout blind advice
« on: January 13, 2012, 06:06:08 PM »
I'm looking to buy one, should have got one at the begining of the season since it's been relativly dry. If it's rainy I will prolly elect not to use it (don't like it raining on the glasses or a cold wet face) but it would help with more success since these late local birds have busted our newwly built blind in the thicket we hunt.

So what have ya'll been using?

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Jim Sr.

I typically use the FA pro-guide series blinds.  I have 5 different blinds, some for packing and some full size.  Comfortable blinds.
Cut em!

Don't be discouraged Jim, we will build that blind up for next year and make it invisable to them geese  :tup:

If you want, I will bring you a tarp and some burlap to cover you up on the ground  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Thanks Pete, I have seriously concidered that option :yike:

The one I'm looking at is the Final Approach X-2 Layout Blind

"Cabelas mobile 1"

Most of the reviews state that it is not waterproof in the floor & up here it needs to be. Thanks for the recomendation though.

Yeah but thats not a problem if you're wearing waders. But you are right they aren't waterproof.

Where we hunt, knee boots are the order of the day cause there is not even a foot of water in most places, unless the Halis is flooding. Neopreme waders sweat too much for me anymore so I use insulated bibs to keep dry & warm.

I think the final Approach is going to be my choice.

Thanks for the info Guys
