Looking for a little bow fishing advise

[mark71211]

I got one of my older bows that I was thinking about converting it to blowfish with. I was just wondering what the cost will be and what all I will need? It's set up for deer now and ain't been shot for about 5 years now.

You will need a reel and arrow. A good reel to start out with would be the AMS retriever pro for about 72 dollars at bowfishing extreme and i bet you could find a used one on ebay cheaper. As far as arrows, pick your poison. You do not need a 40 dollar arrow to shoot fish. A standard white shaft arrow with a muzzy carp point will do fine for carp. You may need to go up to a stngray point or grapple for rays.


you could buy the bohning cone reel that mounts to the front and spins but they are dangerous in my opinion.

Usually the saying is "Aim low and after you miss the first ten fish, Aim lower"
