It was some tough bowfishing. I was launching arrows sideways before I finally got some pliers and moved my rest back where it should be. (Deb actually moved it, I keep her around for such emergencies. )

That helped my shooting but didn't help with the lack of fish.

Deb started taking it out on the bullfrogs. Her first frog. It was a long shot too. Mmm.. frog legs.


When Deb hit that bullfrog, it spit out a little frog (which hopped off). That was interesting.

At about 1:30am we started finding more fish. Hardly any buffalo tho'. And we couldn't get the ones we hit into the boat.

We ended up with 28 fish. Mostly small gar.

Weigh in.


Roger tallies up the board.

Tired crowd.


Woohoo we came in 6th place!


5th place


4th place (yes, they beat us, no question)


3rd place


2nd place


1st place


It was a tie in both length and weight for the smallest gar. So instead of kung fu fighting for it, we split the pot.

What's to be sorry for? You're still the first one to get any posted. (and I know there were other cameras there)
