The varieties
 

I have shot five different species of fish so far.
1-Short nose gar
2-common carp
3-grass carp
4-small mouth buffalo
5-big mouth buffalo
I was wondering what species of fish you guys have stuck so far. Keep up the drillin and reelin!!!

RE: The varieties
 

That's a pretty varied list of species for the small numbers you gotten so far. You must be in a good spot for bowfishing to get all those so soon.

Until 3 years ago it was just common carp for me.
Since I hooked up with the Illinois Bowfishers, I've found a few more...

Grass carp
Mirror carp (Desperado's entry below reminded me of this one.)
Largemouth Buffalo
Smallmouth Buffalo
Quillback Carpsucker
Longnose Gar
Shortnose Gar
Spotted Gar
Bowfin (almost) :D..missed it by that much.

RE: The varieties
 

I've only been out once but I shot a Tilipia and about a 5-1/2' water snake.

Good one Desperado.
I forgot about my Mirror Carp. Had to add it in.

RE: The varieties
 

I have some work to do to get a list like some of you guys, holy carp, I mean crap!!! Some of my spots have multiple species in the same spot, so you cant realy say for sure what your shooting at untill its flopping on the bank in front of you.
