Lost My Virginity

[gil1]

Yup, finally went bowfishing. Had a ball.

I've never been a stellar bow shot, but man, I had no idea I sucked this bad. I must have gone 1 for 20 for the day.

My buddy was about to fall out laughing because I completely panicked after I shot one (just like when I shoot a deer or turkey). I started furiously trying to crank that goofy reel instead of pulling on the rope, and the carp almost won that useless battle.

Anyway, thanks for all your advice over the last week. Y'all made it happen.

Kill a carp, save a swimming pool.

It is addictive, and sometimes frustrating. Bowfishing is the only way to REALLY understand what "light refraction" means. And wait until you start trying to shoot skinny little gar! :grin:

I've backed myself into a corner on this one, Tubs. Can't think of a catch and release scenario in bow fishing.

I think you'll really dig it.

Be sure to eat what you kill.

When it comes to crows and carp, I've always preferred "Kill & Release."

I think you need some surf to go along with your turf. Remember I gave you that buck last year? Well, from now on, I'll donate my carpage to the menu, too.
