Blind setup the night before a hunt

[wvmntnhick]

That may be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. What's the concept behind that?

Setting up the blind and leaving it there overnight is fine, but just remember that they don't always come off the roost the same way they went up.  I've set up my blind right along the path they took to go up to their roost before, only to have them fly down and go the opposite way.

It could have been me spooking them or it could have been their normal morning route.  Who knows?

I like to set up the night before if possible. I also set my decoy stake (but not the decoy) and pace it off from the blind (usually 25-30 yards). This allows me to just out the decoy on the stake in the morning and I know that it's in a good spot and I have a built in range estimation if i have a bird come in really early off the roost.
