Malaysia probably has more tilapia than the U.S. Tilapia are an Asian species that was introduced into the United States, most likely by accident. Since they are a non-native species, most states, if not all, have no limit on Tilapia. As for draw weight, a buddy of mine who is a great bowfisherman, shoots as little as 20 lbs. on the draw. Shoot a manageable weight that won't fatigue you. I wouldn't go above 30 lbs unless you're going after alligator gar or shooting in really deep water.

i agree with all of you anti peta guys...i mean these nile perch are killing our florida bass..i live in florida to and i went out fishing for them today and got about twelve 4 1/2 pounders..kill them all

Man wish we had Tilapia in Ohio must be a heck of a fish fry!

[tonystorino]

i am getting a mathews reezen 40-50 draw and mostly for carp will it work?

[archeeizm]

should work good , if you get too heavy of a draw you bury your arrow so deep its hard to extract. My bud mistook a log for a fish and stuck it and wrecked his 12 dollar arrow!! mathews reezen will be top notch! good luck.

[tonystorino]

aight thanks and keep an eye for my carp videos and i know i picked up the reezen and knew instantly that was the bow

[tonystorino]

i want to get into bowfishing what is the draw wieght on your bow?

[archeeizm]

keep it simple. a recurve and a tomatoe can.. 30 pound draw minimum. compound bows, releases, sights etc. just make it complicated.

[tonystorino]

i am getting a mathews reezen with 40-50 pound draw and was wondering if that would work what is the max for carp

[frfighter25]

Now if you are takeing long shots you may want more draw, but most shots are only about 15 to 20 feet for that 30 to 40 LBS is perfect.

[poolroom1]

@tonystorino there is no max heck people shoot them with 150 pound cross bow but 35 to 60 would work good with you

[frfighter25]

You dont want it to strong or the arrow goes all the way through the fish and takes time to get out, you only need about 30LBS

[Xternal47]

this is what fishing is really about! :D

[bowbassman]

what is the draw on that bow.

[slyangler]

Nile Perch and Tilapia are two completely different species of fish.

[frfighter25]

Yes you are right, but the slang name for these fish is Nile perch, some people dont know what the hell they are.

[pilatunes]

@frfighter25 Are they an introduced species?

[big1buck]

That's a cool video man! Congrats on good video editing too! -Tony

[frfighter25]

Yes they were weighed 5lbs

[griz717]
