I have been thinking of getting a new layblind , and canoe . I was wondering which brands and models that you guys like to use . I know Jeff is switching to FA and thought I might wait to see if they teamup and come out with a new layout blind . Any info would be helpful.

For blinds.....FA X-Land'r and S.U.B. are the tickets!!! I currently own a Finisher - which has broken twice, and a PowerHunter. I do like the PH for mobility and low profile. Check them all out...crawl into each one and see what you like and what you don't!!!

For canoes......you CANNOT beat a Sportspal. I have a 14' and there isn't much I can't do with it. Oh, and you have to try REALLY hard to tip them. They are very, very stable....It's actually pretty amazing. My partner, Jack, who is over 6'0" and close to 220lbs, stood, with both feet, on one edge of the canoe, and bounced. The canoe did take on a little water, but did not capsize. That sold me right there.

I just sold a great canoe, to another guy who is going to use it for ducks. Look around and try them all out, I like the plastics, they are real durable, quieter than aluminum, and very affordable. Plus with the great new Fusion paints you can camo them easy.

I dont know much about canoes, but I have a Finisher for a layout blind. I like it, but if I had room in my truck, I would have a Final Approach Eliminator. They're super roomy and comfortable as hell. My uncle has 2 of them and I use his sometimes.

are you looking for a recreational canoe or a hunting canoe?

Got the FA Top Gun blind. Cabelas had a deal on it not too long ago. We hunt by some warm water slews. The bottom of Top Gun blind is completely waterproof. So, if there is some standing water you're OK.
