    Waterfowling camo

    Just wondering how many of you guys use your "land" hunting camo (i.e. break up, realtree, etc.) for waterfowling or do you use shadow grass, Max-4, etc.. I was just wanting to know if it makes a big difference.

    It all depends on where your hunting. I like to use shadow grass for the salt water marsh and use the avdantage for the cat tails on fresh water. It's amazing how well ducks can pick something that doesn't look right. The biggest thing is movement. It doesn't matter what your wearing, if you move they're going to see you. Face cover is very important for duck hunting. 9 out of 10 times it's your face, head movement that gives you away.

    Mossy Oak Shadow Grass is really awesome

    Thanks for the info guys. I'm trying to decide if I should invest in another set of camo or not. Any shops on the mainland there have a good selection of waterfowl gear?

    I use my German Flecktar for everything, just because I can't afford any more hunting gear at the moment. It's a bit dark and not "marshy" at all, but it's all I've got.

    For big game hunting it's awesome though, in any terrain, spring or fall.
