Default recurve bowfishing

im a traditional shooter and im just getting interested into bowfishing
-i've been shooting a 35# bear recurve for practice for a long time now
i've also been working out and i can now pull a much stronger draw
i know that almost all recurves can be turned into a bowfishing rig- but my question is since my brother likes to go small game hunting witha .22 [:@]... and i would really like to tag along with him- is there any bow that you beleive could easily serve both purposes?

I'm taking your post to mean you want to hunt small game and bowfish with the same bow.

A 35lb bow is plenty strong enough for both fish and small game.

with that Bear recurve it's a simple thing to do... with this adapter you can be set up for bowfishing in minutes and ready to hunt small game even quicker... if you're shooting a bear hair rest or one of the similar rug arrow rests that'll be all you need to Git-R-Done...
