Damned, I miss that.  Used to do that back in WI for carp when I was younger.  Too much fun.  The real big ones can tow a canoe around with 2 guys in it.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

Man I need to do this!  I only have one bow.  Is it a huge deal to rig up my regular hunting bow for bowfishing?

shouldn't be -- just have to have a screw hole to mount your reel.  if you're not getting too serious, you can get one of the handline reels for pretty cheap.

i'd love to get the crank/bottle setups like in those pictures.  those fish always present themselves just right while you're fumbling with retrieving your arrow and setting up for another shot :bash:
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun
