When walking in on a public hunt is there something that you guys use to haul all the stuff needed for duck hunting.

I use a blind bag and usually a duffle bag for the decoys.

My back. bang

I am hauling a layout blind, 15 dekes, gun and the bare minimum of other gear. For my walk something with wheels would be very handy but I have had other spots that nothing could have helped.

I use a little red wagon for the really long hauls. (2 miles one way)

I use my back for the rest.

This....Cheap....

Mixing Tub

Drill holes in the corners and attach a rope to pull it. Holds Layout, Deeks, Blindbag, Jerkstring Rig, Gun, and Thermos.

Also makes a good seat for 2 guys.

And room for birds on the way out. cheers

I use a mixing tub as well. When I saw the price of "sleds" I picked a mixing tub up at the hardware store. The one I have is smaller than I really want, but it works and it cost less than $10.

Not mine, but here is the duck hunter 5000 2.0, at least I believe that is what its called.



Before being converted to the duck hunter 5000 2.0 it was a jogging stroller.

Thinks I think I'll try the mixing tub thats cheap enough to try. The only other thing I thought about was a 100.00 cart from northern.

They had beaver sleds or something like that (cant remember the name exactly) for sale at Cabela's for like $30 a couple days before Christmas. I was going to get one to use as a lay out blind, just a little too small.

I made a single wheel trailer for my stuff to attach behind the bicycle for hunting some private land the land owner doesnt want any vehicles on. It carries a dozen decoys, all my gear and a limit of ducks. Its two miles one way. It cost me the price of a cheap u joint, and some emt, i had the above mentioned concrete mixing sled and a wheel off another bicycle. It pulls nicely and when i get to the spot i lay a mat out and change into my waders. I may add a gun rack on the bicycle but for now i sling the shotgun. Including the welding it took two hours to build. If you want some pictures let me know i will take some.

The next model will have a quality U joint for the hitch and the attachment where it is welded will be crimped first and the center piece will be a little longer. I was able to do the entire project with two sticks of 3/4 emt, a cheap u joint from harbor freight, an extra bicycle tire, and the mixing tub. I had everything on hand except for the emt and u joint total cost for me was $10. With the cheap U joint the trailer tends to lean to the side a bit but it is not noticeable when towing. The pictures are with a full load. For those that are not good at bending emt there are videos on u tube that explain it very well how to measure and bend to get the correct height. (Bending Conduit (Polly Friendshuh) There are three cross-members that you can't see very well that are riveted to the frame for support of the basket.
