Hide?


A home-made from frame from pvc pipes and t-joints, camo material from Cabelas.com, metal rods to hold the stakes in place. Hoping to spend some quiet time on the mudflats this season snooping on waders and maybe ducks.

Frames:
3x4' pvc pi
2x1.5' pvc pipe
3xt-joints
3xmetal stakes

I've got the G-10 Grizzly ground tent from Cabelas.com but seemd too bulky to lug around the flats. This home-made version would be easily portable using a tripod bag, it's very lightweight. The camo material can be squished into a backpack. It's also expandaple by adding a few more t-joints and pvc pipe.

Let's see how it performs in the next few weeks, hopefully it won't be blown away by the sea-breeze.

On to the mudflats ....
