Default Bowfishing question???

When they say "Gar Point" for your arrow, can it be used for carp and other fish with good results, or do you have to buy a specific "Carp point" to fish for them? I would like to have a point good enough for both.

Muzzy's catalog is where I got confused....

Never heard of such a thing... But then I'm not up on the latest in bowfishing gear. I'm still using the old Bear hand reel I got 30 years ago. Maybe they've got specialty heads for different species now. I wouldn't know why though. I do have a few Muzzy fishin' heads and they're darn good.

I use carp points for everything...they are more pointed(more conical shaped) and seem to get better penetration through the scales on some of the bigger carp. Really though, they are both fine and both will work but if I have a choice I pick the carp points every time. Hope that helps.
