Does anyone use just a simple tape on reel to bow fish. Been thinking of trying it but don't want to spend a lot at first.
That is what i generally use. They work pretty good too. I have shot a lot of gar and some mullet too with various bows and that type of reel set-up. You can sometimes find them for $5 used. Heck, I once bought an old fiberglass bow for $5 just to get the tape-on reel.
You will get addicted to bowfishing though.
get the good stuff cause youll be hooked..
i used a tape on reel last year but bought a AMS and never even looked back...
work good enough not to justifie the 70$ plus for the high speed rigs.jonesy
