Default bowfishing points

Well we have a poll going on that wants to know what type of bow's we are using. I was wondering what kind of points are being used and why? We all seem to have our favorites. I use a penetrator point. Because of the ease of removal. If it is stuck down inside a big fish and you cannot get to the tip to turn it, all you have to do is twist the shaft and it reversed the barbs. Had a buddy just shoot a large turtle in the leg and shoulder musles. He was using a muzzy point and we could not get to the tip to unscrew it. So had to cut the head out and thus kill the turtle. Had he been using a penetrator tip, we could have twisted the shaft and pulled the arrow out and he would have been no worse for wear.

My buddy Snuffy uses the sting-a-ree also and really likes them too. I had one and the blade broke off really easy.
