RE: Want to Start Bowfishin
LOL just posted to this same question on another forum.
IMO the best set-up is the AMS retriever with safety slides on your arrows. I don't know what the prices are. If you go to the Illinois Bowfishers link in my signature, there are links there to places like F&D Archery and other good folks who can get you set-up with everything you need.
Good Luck.
