I just bought a mini bass boat and was wanting some ideas to put a portable blond on it to hunt some of the back ponds i have by me where its a little to deep to wade into. Has anyone ever converted one into a duck blind? and if so do u have any pic
I attached a picture to show what type of boat i have

Get some 3/4" emt and a pipe bender. Only your imagination can stop you from there.

My god this made me laugh, big tater in a mini boat, if you could see what I'm visualizing this to look like in my head...

Sorry tater, don't know you, just assuming your a big guy

This. Google "scissor blind" and customize it to the boat.

Man I feel guilty about de-railing your thread new guy, honestly a boat that small I think your best bet for hunting would be to ditch the seats and make a hide maybe using a field layout blind or something similar. I think a tall blind would be to unstable

But seriously, a few prices if conduit would do wonders to that thing.

Some spud poles in the corners would take care of a majority of the stability issues too.

Poke 4 poles in the mud and wrap three sides with chicken wire. Stuff the chicken wire with grass or brush and park the boat inside .

Ditch the seats and use it like a layout boat.
