I had a friend that bowfished Lake Washington a couple years back. He said it wasn't worth it due to the harassment. The tree huggers will have the sheriff and fish and game there in no time. Even with the right to hunt law that we have these days to protect us from harassment, the big money from the homeowners on the waterfront will overrule the redneck out there shooting carp and doing the lake some good!

All they can do is check you for a license, if you are smart you carry a copy of the regs' with you when you fish in this state, when you get threatened with a ticket you just point out the appropriate parts of the book and tell them to have a nice day! I've done it plenty of times when confronted by the fishcops and haven't gotten a ticket yet but I have had them refuse to look at the book while insisting that I was in the wrong at which point I just ignore them.

It seems like alot of people think shooting carp with a bow is illegal.I have had police officers show up alot where I go.It doesn't bother me at all.I think it's our duty as bowhunters to stir the pot as much as possible.
