We construct the Wilson loop operator of N=6 super Chern-Simons-matter whichis invariant under half of the supercharges of the theory and is dual to thesimplest macroscopic open string in AdS_4 x CP^3. The Wilson loop couples, inaddition to the gauge and scalar fields of the theory, also to the fermions inthe bi-fundamental representation of the U(N) x U(M) gauge group. Theseingredients are naturally combined into a superconnection whose holonomy givesthe Wilson loop, which can be defined for any representation of the supergroupU(N|M). Explicit expressions for loops supported along an infinite straightline and along a circle are presented. Using the localization calculation ofKapustin et al. we show that the circular loop is computed by a supermatrixmodel and discuss the connection to pure Chern-Simons theory with supergroupU(N|M).
