Well.... I guess its time to come out of the shadows. Posting here cause the only picture i can drum up at the moment is a stuck fish. Been lurking for a while and never had much to say.
My name is Cory, I have a wife and we are expecting our first child in 2 weeks. Gonna have a little hunting and fishing buddy. I have been hunting since i was 12, fishing almost as long and just a few years ago jumped into this crazy bowfishing game. My buddy and i have done the tournament circuit for the last 2 years, I don't think we'll ever shake the itch to club some fish.
Hoping to join in and contribute some to this site. Just posted a "For trade" on the classifieds as my first post, and as a long time lurker well.....my bad.
With that said guys, keep up the great site!

looks like fun, do they put up a fight, or i should say how do you fight them attached to a bow, does it reel in like a normal reel, i bet its a blast hauling in a 30lb pissy carp....

I actually have a spinning style reel on the bow and an 8" rod tip with one eyelet. They do put up a great fight even the small ones, unless it's between the eyes then they just float up. The bigger ones will sometimes require your buddy to throw a 2nd arrow in em' and will still tug the front of the boat around.

that is awesome, the differant stuff a guy could get into to keep himself busy, like any other sport probably pretty expensive tp get started huh? can you shoot other types of fish with a bow, like bass or salmon?

Cory,
You guys shooting Boardman in a couple weeks? We went out Sunday and saw a ton of fish. Should be a good shoot!

Teamks · « **Reply #14 on:** August 02, 2012, 08:56:46 PM »

Cory welcome to the site, Stickers are you gonna make it to the shoot last time I saw you was at Strike running a kicker motor for about 15 miles

Stickers · « **Reply #15 on:** August 09, 2012, 06:17:47 PM »

We'll be at Boardman this weekend. That kicker got me home that day and one other time this last week. My boats had three motors on it in 2 weeks. Blew 2 200s exactly 1 week apart. Ive got the 2stroke jitters now. This last one seems like a winner though. Hopefully we won't need the kicker this weekend

Congratulations on your son! The shoot was a great time. Tons of fish like expected. It's been a great season, hopefully we'll see you out on the water this fall salmon season.
