 How long is your Trip to the blind
Just wondering how long it takes everyone to get to there blind. To the launch is 45 min, to My blind takes about 20-25 min . I go 10 miles on an oxbow bayou to go 5 miles if that makes any sense.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
Also depends, they range from 5min to 35 minutes depending where I decide. The river is the long hauls, just have to stay on top of the weather

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
25-30 minutes to the ramp and 10-15 to the blind by boat. If the waters too shallow and I gotta take the four wheeler it's an hour to the ramp, 15 minute boat ride, and then a 20 minute four wheeler ride. Gotta go round about Laura's house to get there that way

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
It's 1 1/2 hours to the camp, but once I'm there, I'm there for at least a couple of days. From the launch to the blind...maybe 5 minutes. I have my own launch so once the boats soaking, it dont come out till I'm headed home.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
I usually leave the launch around 4 am and get to the blind at 3 am. My boat is so fast I make time go backwards.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
Depending on which lake I hunt, 30 minutes to 2.5 hr drive. Depending on which spot on the lake, 5 to 30 minute boat ride.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
2 hours or an hour to ramp 10-20 minutes to spot.
It's simple. get a mud motor. shoot ducks in the face.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
4 hours to the lake 10 mins to the spot. The posts like that are pretty funny to me but I actually do that sometimes. Most of my local hunting is 30-40 mins on the trailer and 10-15 in the water.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
No permanent blinds here, but if you want a temporary one you just grab someone else's brush pile and move it to the place of your liking.
Mine is on the boat, so drive times have varied from 20 min- 3hrs.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
10 min to the launch. 10 min to wait for the other people to get their boats in the water. 10-12 min to the blind.

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
I love duck hunting but damn that far of a drive ! Guess I'm just spoiled to living close to the marsh. I actually could get to my lease in 45 min by water from my house but I'm not doing that when it's cold lol

 Re: How long is your Trip to the blind
Well again today I figured out that it doesn't really matter how far or what time you leave there is still some jackass who is going to show up 30 min before shooting time drive through your hole and set up 75 yards from you and sky bust....Damn you duck dynasty damn you...
