Bow fishing 3-23-2015

Me and 3 buddies went out last night after classes to try and get into some carp. We've been seeing a few moving up into shallow water here and there but the numbers just haven't gotten into shootable depth yet. Apparently in the couple of weeks where we couldn't go, a substantial number of fish moved up into the coves where we put a hurting on them. Overall we killed 53-55 drum, common carp, bigmouth buffalo and smallmouth buffalo. I personally killed about 20 of the fish with the old Sammick sage.

Good shootin', congrats. Bow fishing is something I've been thinking about getting into for a while, and I've recently decided to give it a try. How could it not be fun? It combines two of my favorite things, hunting and fishing. Thanks.

Gotta try this sometime. Only fish allowed to shoot up here is pike, but still it's bowfishing.
And Matthew, Carp(e) diem.

Me too. They spear fish through the ice using decoys, why not a bow if legal? I'm sure It's been done.
Is there no limit to how much fun you can have in this sport? :D

That's one good thing about Tennessee. Open water and no season on rough fish.

Congrats on your success. Here the water is still hard. Won't get into it until mid-May.
