Default Bow fishing set up

I was at a big sporting goods dealer the other day and saw a set up for 35 dollars bow and reel without arrows. Is that going to be a waste of my money or does it sound like not that bad of a buy. I know nothign about it other than it is the reel that everyone uses, and the bow is blue. It had the AMS reel

For $35??????????? If true, go back and buy every single one they had and I will give you $60 for each of them.

I usually see the Retriever reelsfor 60 or 70$ by themselves.
The blue bow sounds like the Fishhawk, similar to the Genesis.
I've seen the combo package for over $300.

Something's not right there. Even if he was dumping his entire bowfishing inventory and going out of business, they'd be more than $35.

Sounds like it should be $350, but, if it is $35, clean them out.

I hate when the zero doesn't print on the pricing gun! [:@]
