Default Newbie needs some advice

I just recently got into bowfishing mainly because I cant wait till September 15(Opening day Archery Deer baby!). I have been trying to get my first kill for the last 3 days. I have taken around 50 shots and have yet to hit a fish(suckers). I know you have to aim below them. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreaciated.

Not easy, is it?

UsuallyI tellpeople to keep aiming lower until they start hitting fish. You can sometimes aim too low.

Just keep at it. You'll figure it out.

Like Christine said. Aim low. If you didn't hit, aim lower.
