This is the last weekend of turkey season in TN. I went this morning and didn't hear a bird in ear shot...I can hear forever from where I was at this morning. Since the turkey hunting was a bust I stopped by to check out my bow fishing honey holes in the hopes that the May suckers were starting to spawn. I saw quite a few but couldn't make it back til this afternoon...our little girl had a tball game and I had to do a few other things.
I went back to the creek as fast as I could get there by myself this afternoon. The suckers were in a deep hole and VERY few and FAR between. I managed to get one.
I came back home to eat a bite and take a break. Rachel wanted to go back with me. We found a hole that had some big carp. But they were way far off and too deep. That didn't keep me from trying though. I damn near shot til my shoulder was toast and I quit.
We hit one last hole on the creek on the way home just to check it out. There were quite a few suckers in it. I told Rachel to have at em. She grabbed the bow and did very well. I think she's hooked now. I've heard nothing but "bows" for the past three hours....I love it lol. I shoulda had her do this a long time ago.
That's my old Bear Hunter TD with 50# limbs she killed em with. I've got a set of 60# limbs I'm gonna put on it next time I get to go to aid in those long deep shots. She will be shooting my 45# Hoyt Dorado next time.
