Bowfishing carp and gar not from a boat, but stalking the banks around trees and bushes to hunt down these overpopulated fish. We are using the nutrients from these fatty fish to fertilize our vegetable garden beds!

I did this a lot 40-45 years ago. I lived in west Tennessee and when the Mississippi river would flood, it filled the fields and crossed some roads. A friend and I would walk the ditches and wade knee deep water, in the fields. Nothing will make your heart race, like sticking a 30 pound bighead carp and having it slam into your legs, trying to escape.

I think googan needs to do more of bowfishing. Maybe even make their own line?? That would be badass!

@Stonehorn Жыл бұрын

Googan isn’t big enough to get into archery. Building bows, arrows, and accessories is incredibly difficult and expensive. The engineering alone is beyond their budget, let alone production (based on their 2022 filings). Googan makes bait and rebrands reels and rods (so do most companies aside from the major makers), those are pretty cheap endeavours. Googan needs to not get in over their heads. Theres just no way they can compete with companies like PSE/Hoyt/HHA/QAD/Hoggfather anywhere in the archery space.

@PlatonicVoyeur Жыл бұрын

If you have a pressure cooker, these fish actually aren't bad to eat. The obstacle is the bones, but pressure cooking makes them chewable by leaching the collagen into the meat, like a canned sardine. I kid you not, carp burgers are one of my all-time favorite ways to eat fish.

Quick free upgrade for that set up! Unscrew the stopper by the knock and take it off. Untie the collar and take that off. Take your string and tie a loop on the end. Feed the loop through the screw hole then bring it up over the knock and arrow. Pull tight on itself. You now took away most of your drag when shooting the arrow from the collar sliding and drag in the water!

@aliasfred Жыл бұрын

When I bow fish in the swamp water for carp, I stand still in my chest waders and watch for a carp with the widest eye span, then aim for a headshot. Reason number one- wide apart eyes makes for a huge carp, headshot is good because if it gets off, wait a few minutes it will float to the top and you can retrieve it, most of a carps blood is in its head.

You should bring a small sharpener to resharpen your tip every now and then. Shooting into the ground messes up your tip more than you think. I think that’s why you had a lot come off.

@TheCaptainbeefylog Жыл бұрын

Would a small/medium crossbow be better suited for this, considering the brush you're shooting through? Fishing with rod and reel for them can be great fun also. Bread, corn and nightcrawlers are best baits on light spinning gear up to 12lb. You can freeline, paternoster or under a float are all good rigs. Imagine how well your veggies are going to be doing in a few months!

I have a pond near along the bike path that the carp were spawning in one year. Anyways I went in the pond and grabbed a couple by hand. Very hard to catch a twenty pound slimeball. It would keep slipping out of my hands.

Okay definitely buy several extra bowfishin tip's and arrows and do this again there was some huge carp you were hitting. Bet money all the one's you put a hole in are dead now floating close to the bank somewhere, maybe even drawing in some wild hogs. Imagine killing a bunch and throwing them up on the bank and waiting to see what comes in front of the trail camera!

I‘m totally aware that carp is an invasive species at your place, so I‘m fine with taking them out of the game - but what‘s the point of spearing tiny gars? Thumbs up anyway. Btw: These carps show a completely different behavior than they do in Europe - fishing round the year, you will maybe not even see 10 or so that close to shore and surface!
