Nice video and great fish. Recently went to France for a week at Etang De Villaine. Was there for 5 nights and caght 24 fish and they were all over 20lb, eleven of them were over 30lb. Its a private 6 acre lake full night fishing and run by british carp angler stu and jan.. check it out w w w carpfishinginfrancesite . com
I don't even mess with shooting gar unless they are huge. I like to eat them and they are a pain to clean, and if they are small, you won't get much of a fillet. Also, if you are killing gar in a situation like this, you are taking out another predator that feeds on baby carp, essentially contributing to the carp problem. Once the silver and bighead spawn, you can see gar eating tons of the fry. Excellent shot, headshots are the best. With the structure of the head, they don't pull off much
@ArcticCat137 Any rough fish with no size or possesion limit. Also in the states with invasive species like the bighead or silver carp, i say in the states with them because i am in MN and these fish have not yet come up the river to me. (thank god)
I enjoyed the music score, "Once upon a time in the west" Is this a televised show? The quality of this and others posted by KYAfield are broadcast quality.
question i have a barnett crossbow.. is there a bow fishign attachment for it... im haveing a hard time locating anything for it so if you could point me in the right direction if at all possible it would be appreciated.. thnaks looks like awesome fun would love to get into it
do u have to like rig all that ontoo a normal bow could u guy tell me how u rigged up your fishing bow because i have a bow and i want to make it into a fishing bow but i dont know how. looks really fun nice job guys. Please respond or make a vid on how u made ur bow a fishing bow Thanks.
look on amsbowfishing website and they sell kits, if you have a compound bow, the place you screw in your counter weight, they sell adapters to screw into there and you put a reel on that. then just buy a zebco and line to put on it along with fishing arrows and your set
i went out at night 4 my first time last night. i bowfish in the day a lot but the first night out wasnt really good. electric motor burnt up. the good thing was i saw about a 50lb+ common carp. thats a state record where i live and i never used a generator. spotlight worked 4 about an hour. then we went to the 2 bow mount lights
this might sound stupid but i just found out that you have to have a specail bow to bowfish (im just starting) but my question is, are there any types of set ups were you can just attach the reel to a normal bow?
i live in ohio and i cant belive that u can do that do u haft to buy a seprat licens for this bc i live to hunt and i live to fish i do it all the time if i'm not in the wods i'm on the lake i want to get into this it looks cool
haha this is filmed were i live in kentucky at the beginging that bridge i think that was the ohio its so flooded right now we got rain 40 hr straight nad it was bad.

You just need a special reel, not a special bow. You can get a basic set up from cabelas for about $30 that would work fine for a beginner.

you dont even need a reel we use bows with metal rings with gatorade bottles in the middle and just wind string around it it works perfect
