Thread: Kayak Duck hunting

I have in the past used our large old tinny with a mate to float the local rivers after ducks. We are finding the ducks wary of the large tinny with minimal camo. I have been looking at a kayak to enable me to hunt solo. I was wondering how common it is for duck hunting, advantages/disadvantages?

Alos how would you best use it to get the best from it? stationery on the side of a river in a good spot? or mostly floating?

I am keen on a kayak similar to one Paul Stenning uses in his article in the NZ Hunter mag. http://www.missionkayaking.com/site/...20Brochure.pdf

Not cheap at $1200, but I assume the potential hunting opportunities it would create would justify the cost?.

Also been thinking about how it would work as a platform for hunting coastal Geese from?

Keen to hear some comments/ideas??

Cheers
