it depends on how much money you want to spend on it-------you can go to a pond shop buya bow and get everthing else (reel, arow, bowfishing line, spot light for the boat, and maby a few extra tips for the arrow-shooting into rocks really messes them up.) at a good sporting goods store............if money is no issue you can go to bass pro, academy, gander mountian, or any other big sporting store to buy a rig thats already set up...should run you around 200$for a good'n................pond shop way should run you around.........50$

You mean pawn shop. I'm not so sure they have pawn shops where she lives.

Kat, I'll give you a list of things to look for and some links to sites to find them. I have to leave for work right now. Have a good day!
