why not I know at rend you could spear more than you could shoot. They are within a couple feet of the boat all night. I dont see why any place else would be different

I know of some guys that did pretty well spearing in a tournament (spearing was allowed in this tournament of course). Some areas of the Desplaines over there get so thick with carp that I've gone wacking them with the paddle. Now that's a good time!

That would be cool.

There is a guy up at Wonder Lake that does that.
He does quite well.

I'm thinking of making some atlatl darts and using them down in KY for bigheads. Would be neat to get on video. ;)

(when I'll have time to make atlatl darts... I have no idea)
