Any hunters out there?

I was just wondering if anyone was doing any duck hunting out of their yaks. A friend got me doing it last year and we've had a blast. A little different than out of a big boat to say the least.

I regularly hunt out of my aquapod. It is a little more stable than a yak.

Ive been duck hunting from my Yak for the last three years...I found I could balance a bag with 15-20 decoys on the front and still paddle fairly easily.
It hides easy and I waxed some birds
Here is my "Blind" -Burlap Zip tied to the Yak

Yes I'm in there... this was up at Lake Seminole.

Looking up at some friends in a "real boat" :lol:

Only issue I had was other boats could not see me... I use a head lamp and a reflective pole to help make me more noticeable.
Last thing I want is a guy with a mud motor running me over!
