Default Shafts to points

Do you guys epoxy/glue your shafts to the point sleeve where the point screws into?

We use epoxy to attach our points to the fiberglass shafts.

No fletch for bowfishing.

I'd look on Ebay, Craigslist and local garage sales for a used bow. Bowfishing equipment takes alot of abuse. Anything from 35-50-pounds is perfect.
