bkirsch Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I hear Mossy Oak has a new camo called duckblind. Has anyone seen any gear in the new camo pattern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tucker301 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 You did indeed. I enjoyed reading your answer. Have considered doing the same many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOwaterfowler Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Not I. they said they had some in the store, but me or the sales guy couldn't find any. to light for were i hunt. New breakup works best for me. well i guess obsession now. spend most of my time standing by a tree. or in a oak leaf covered blind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkirsch Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Let me ask the question another way. Do you own any duckblind camo gear and how does the new pattern compare with Shallowgrass or MAX4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 ANY camo pattern that breaks up shapes and features colors from the surroundings will do well. New patterns are invented to sell people who already have plenty of camo clothing more camo clothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMAC Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Absolutely Tucker!! You can wear some pretty ratty looking stuff and as long as it breaks up your shape your in buisness, a face mask to cover your white face and a hat are a must. After that it gets into want over need, and granted we all have some of the wants over needs - guess its part of the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkirsch Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 I agree. I use MOBU but I am in need of new waders. The Cabella waders do not come in MOBU. I guess what your saying is the camo is more for the person than the ducks. I do use a face mask. At least this year, I was only in a blind once. The ducks were so blind shy that we were in edges of timber or on buckets in water in the coffee beans that were left in the fields. We really had to blend in well and good camo was an important factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOwaterfowler Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 i think most camo depends of if the critter sees color or b&w. birds normaly see color and 4 legged b&w. it's also game knowledge. if a critter doesent know a white face is bad it won't spook it. me and my bro were hunting ducks and i was on one side of the tree him the other me in new breakup and him in old brown camo. when ducks came in on his side they flared from my side they nearly sat in the dekes. the ducks new that patteren was bad news and fled when they saw it.

bkirsch Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Mowaterfowler, You sure that there was not something else causing the duck to flare? We had a 4 wheeler back in the timber and had to fully cover it with camo. The 4 wheeler was green and we covered the front and rear lights but they still flared. When we finally covered the entire 4 wheeler no problem..we got 20 that day. Everybody had different types of camo and the ducks did not seem to notice.

MOwaterfowler Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 i think it was just it was old and kinda faded so it was more like a big bright tan flag. even to my eyes he stuck out like a sore thumb. we were hiding next to 3-4 oaks. it was water treebark sky not the best place. in the blind on the lake we have grass and stuff he blends in good there, and i kinda stick out camos to dark. my waders are max-4 there either underwater in a blind or in the grass undergrowth next to the tree i'm hiding by. i forget where i saw it. but they had guys in 4 types of cammo stand aronnd the same type of cover and took color and B&W photos. in the B&W everyone was hid farely well. in the color you could see 2-3 guys clearly in each shot. think was a grass style, mobu style, older brown, and sagebrush type. all taken in their respective areas.

tucker301 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Ducks and other birds see in the UV spectrum. Many household laundry products contain additives which brighten UV colors as well as the colors we see. If you wash your camo in these products then they will look like they're glowing to ducks, even though they look OK to you and me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMAC Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 You wash your hunting cloths? A llittle rain usually cleans mine right up. I think your right about seeing in the UV spectrum, and I believe deer are also similar even thought they are supposed to be color blind.

bkirsch Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Thanks Tucker....never thought about the UV spectrum for ducks. I will wash by duck hunting camo in the same detergent as my deer hunting camo.... no UV brighteners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
