I agree with guy, layouts are layouts, to me they are more comfortable, durable, and practical than rigging up a lawn chair and some burlap. I like being able to call and work a jerk string with no movement that a duck could see. You can find some great deals on here or clist. I also have a momarsh and marsh rat layout boats that allow you to be in inches to 20ft of water with a low profile.

Try this then: MoMarsh Lounger  We have 8 of the gear downs, other than having to replace the straps and buckles, they have been problem free. 5 of them are Mossy Oak Shadow Grass and are at least 5 yrs old, possibly 6 yrs. I bought 3 more this yr from Mack's when they were 1/2 off, I think $50 each. I used Avery's grass and it last about 2-3 seasons before we have to re-tie it.

We use layouts, no cover on them, fresh mud from the waters edge. Works like a charm.

I agree with using a layout easy and your hidden but I hate them and NOBODY I took out wanted to ever lay in one again..That being said, he said he couldn’t spend the cabbage for two of them so he has to think outside the box..Back in the day..The 80’s I don’t think they had layouts and we used lawn chairs very well..

You can find layout blinds for real cheap. But an even cheaper option would be laying against a lay down or some cut branches, they're teal you don't needa get too serious for them

I have one of those expedites and love it, Guy, but when I finally bought it I did because I couldn't find the $20 lounge chairs anywhere... wrong season. It would take a bit of work to paint on that silver shiny metal and paint the straps but those things are super light.
I left the blanket on mine and grassed it up, John sewed extra blanket on his.

The Primos HardCore blind is what I used and never had issues. They go for $40 on ebay and youo brush 'em in.
Wasn't born in Texas, but I got there as fast as I could.
