Nice head shot on that one...course they don't fight quite as much that way!  I like your rig...looks like you can get pretty skinny with it.  I love bowfishing, your post makes me want to get out and shoot some fish!

I noticed you shoot the same points I do. Have you had any problems with penetration? I've had some problems lately. What weight are you shooting?

Great pictures  :thumbsup:

It is a 10ft boat.I have had some issues with pull outs,so I used a grinder to re-sharpen the edges on the tip.I have not had any issues since.I am shooting a 50# bear 76er I picked up a ETAR a few years ago for $15.00. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/soldier321/Picture063.jpg)

Way to go Bones, looks like a good time and a good way to handle the heat wave.  Where were you on which river?  I'm not looking to steal your hot spot, it just doesn't look familiar to me.

It is the New River.

Thanks Bones,

I thought I had seen most of the New but it looks like a portion I have not been on.  It has been a while though so maybe my memory fails me.  Maybe further south than I have been as well.

Keep at it - looks like fun!  Thanks for the pics.....

Sounds like a blast Bones. And it looks like you have a good rig for the action.  You are on a stretch that I have not seen too much.  In times past I have spent many hours fishing by canoe and by foot everything from Austinville to Bluestone dam in WV.  I need to get back on the river and I need to take my bow with me.

Keep at it....
