My New Personal Best Carp
« on: April 22, 2010, 08:58:00 PM »
I got out the past two days for some bowfishing on the Susquehanna. I apparently can't shoot. Really. I shot my Gamegetter2 alot, I bet 75 times in the last 2 days. Only hit once,right before I left today, but managed a new "personal best".

 

I took this second one for perspective. Size 10 1/2 waders.

 

Thanks for lookin.

I almost didn't land him, he flopped off at the bank, into a sinkhole, second shot closed the deal. The first shot punched the hole in the gill plate seen in the first pic. I missed a TON of them at close range, it made me feel good to connect. Thanks again for looking.
