Huntress Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Me and a friend from church headed down to the bottoms, or whats not under water, to see if we could arrow some carp. This was my first time bowfishing. I've went when I was much younger with my dad but just watched, this time it was my turn! Lol... After missing a carp and several gar I finally got the hang of it and smoked my first gar. The fish were still pretty deep but if the river continues to rise like it has been, the fields will be fiiled with water and fish. I'm going today at noon for a while then again this evening. Marijane Ps...pray for our friends and family that live along the river. They are in the middle of moving to higher ground but it's still scary, even with notcie. The news last night predicited it being worse than '93....I'm not sure if our community will make it through that...Thanks, Marijane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huntress Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I didn't have a camera with me yesterday or I woulda had some good pics for ya. I killed 10 gar yesterday, one measured 31 inches. We didn't have a scale so we don't know how much it weighed. A buddy of mine killed a 25 lbs silver carp! Those things stink! I'll try to get some pictures today, I think we're going after we got done fillin sand bags. Marijane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
