Jeff, just caught this thread. I used to Bowfish a bunch with a core group of friends and before that I used to walk creeks and shoot carp. We can shoot anthing that is not a game fish but that pretty limits us to carp and suckers.

The best time for us was March April when the river was up a bit and the carp would come into the flooded shallows. We'd bowfish at night with spot lights from bass boats and pontoons.

The Bowfishing forum would be a spectatular place for this thread too.
