Hello Guys, Here last week I was over to my uncle's house and I got looking around in one of the many barns that he has well I walked in one got looking around and seen something that looked like a bow so I walked over and there it was a 1960s Bear grizzly 40@28 well it had a old bear tap on fish reel and an arrow so I picked it up and walked out to ask my uncle about the bow.. He said when he was my age he did a lot of bow fishing with it and said u know what I know that there not the going thing any more so just take it and have fun with it I don't want that old thing any more :scared: :scared: well u guys know what I mean.. Well the old girl has been in that barn since the late 70s so she need a lot of TLC well that what my plans are next week.. Well any ways here in MI we had a nice day and the rain and snow flooded most of the lakes so I was thinkin today would be a great bowfishing day about 60 out so I went out and made a day of but there where no fish shot today I never came close to any I am thinkin of going out 2morrow I will be back out ther in the backwater to see what I can see..
Sorry for the long storey guys..
Take care,
Cody

Cool, Cody. My son and I really have a blast shooting fish with our old Bears. I have shot many a fish using a tape-on reel. Go get 'em!
Cody, just finished the deal tonight. Should be here next week.Can't wait to shoot some fish with it :thumbsup:
Bear bow, fish arrow and some rough fish- sounds like a recipe for a fun day to me.
Nice find, make sure that you use a safety slide on your arrow.
