Anyone use a ghost blind?

I am going to give this a try behind some dead fall I piled up about a month ago.

Cool, had to blow it up to see it. Should be good until the colors change. I know we’re a small market up here but sure wish there were more blinds available in snow/white camo . Once it snows the brown or greenish camo ones sure stand out.

The panels are reflectors (mirrors effectively) of whatever is on the ground.

Interesting idea.

The ghostblind is basically a giant flexible mirror. It reflects whatever is on the ground including snow.

I saw them at the outdoor show last spring. They looked cool, but I can't help but wonder if they look funny to game - their eyes aren't the same as ours, so I wonder if the reflection looks "off" to them.

I look forward to hearing your experience with it though!

I want to put a panel on the front of my kayak. Paddle right up to the flocks of geese and divers. Then lower the panel and surprise em

Let us know how it works out if you ever do it!

It sounds stupid but I bet it'll work. I just need to find a 4' mirror cheap. Angle it towars the water and I become invisible.
Canvasbacks dont care at all about my kayak. Its brown camo thst matches the water in lake st Claire I can paddle right up them and flush them. Sometimes I have to slap the water to get them to take off
Red heads and blue bills are more leery but I can usually drift in on them if I lay down.

I've seen them advertised before but have yet to see the actual product. How scratch resistant is the coating? do you have to worry about the sunn hitting it and reflecting?

Still a few old guys doing that in a similar way.

Referred to as "screening" or "sculling" using a scull boat. They set a decoy spread, wait up wind and when there are birds in the decoys that start down on them.
