took our new boat setup out last night for the first time. we got into alot of fish, mostly average size. we scouted and found where the big guys are and we'll be back real soon. btw- having to work all day after shooting fish till 2 in the morning isn't a good idea:) and also for anyone wondering the fish are now being used by a farm as fertilizer.

the pics got cropped short but the total was 41 fish for the night

Night owl bowfisherman! Nice catch. Whatcha using there, is that a K Mag?

good stuff!
i bet the farm will have a bumper crop!

nice gar!

That is a *most excellent* fishing trip!

Enjoy the weekend!

Shoot straight, Shinken

   

Nice "catch"!  

Darn good night!!!!!

   

thanks guys! yeah its a grayling k-mag i'm shooting. im in the middle of ordering and putting together a new setup- hoyt excel riser and black max limbs. should make a tough combo for fish.

Okay, I'm a little slow.  Just wondering how one would go about making fertilizer out of the fish, since my wife likes to garden?  We already have a steady supply of horse manure, but I will probably end up bowfishing abit when I move to Oklahoma and I don't like to waste.  Probably can only eat so many gar and carp.

just burn them in the garden. youre garden will be so rich. or if you compost, turn them in with your compost

bmb can you post a pic of your boat? pdk, I bury some head down around the rose and berry bushes. Dig deep and don't lay the fish on the ground next to the hole. I don't have diggers this way.

sorry guys i didnt mean to say" burn" i meant bury:) usually split them with a hatchet ( we have a big garden)

owlbait- i'll have to take some pics later. its a 16 foot flat bottom. with 6 500 watt halogen, railing, and an arrow and flopper stopper tube

Nice fish! What part of Alabama are you from?

limestone county but im about 10 minutes from huntsville

bmb can you tell me what a flopper stopper tube is? What do you run your lights off? I am refitting my boat soon and looking at options.

i have a tube that hold extra arrows and a flopper stopper( finishes the fish off). i run my lights off of a 6500 watt john deere genny.
