I got to meet up with Mark S. and his friend from out of town, and Chris (bulzeye) today for some bowfishing in new waters. We had a slow start due to the weather. It was rainy or drizzling for the early part of our outing, and we had a steady breeze blowing out of the south-west which made seeing fish difficult to say the least.

I was in a canoe, and Chris, Jim and Mark S. were in Mark's boat.

We ended up taking a total of 22 fish for the day (well, really only about5 1/2 hours).

We tried to get some video, but it didn't come out.Maybe next time.

What a great place! It was a backwater-area that covered at least a couple hundred acres and was just loaded with carp, buffalo and a few gar. It was especially nice because the bottom was either soft muck or sandy-clay, so our tips never got dulled or damaged from misses and pass-throughs hitting rocks.I can't wait to go back again!Whenwe do, we'll let everyone here know as soon as we can so you have lots of notice. I did pretty well out of a canoe, so any small boat or canoe will do. I didn't even have a motor, and I had no problems getting around,seeing fish and getting plenty of good shots. A very productive spot.
