I'm guessing it was a shot in the dark?    :laughing:

Yeah, about my 20th.....I know all about refraction and all, but I am the WORST fish shooter alive. I missed a carp the size of a young manatee last night...

Roger,

Maybe your new Ramer isn't so quiet after all-a carp jumped the string?!?!?!

Nice! I've been wondering where all the bowfishers have been!

Ray, I just figured he hit it right at sunset and had to trail it in the dark!

Roger's a very good tracker, but I can see he had a string tracker involved on this kill recovery.    ;)

Nicely done Roger.

 I still have yet to sink an arrow into one of those.  It's similar to hitting an arrow, with another arrow.

I shoot at a knot in a 2x2 board in front of my hay bale for practice... it's hard to hit without any refraction!

Nice shooting!
