bowfishAZ Report post Posted June 25, 2012 On the lake at 9pm off at 5am. Shooting was slow but still a great time. We shot 1 buff and 15 carp. Buff was 26lbs and the carp were between 12-18lbs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bowfishAZ Report post Posted June 25, 2012 They have an air sac in them so you have to puncture it so when you sink them back into the lake they dont float back up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesWhitetail Report post Posted June 25, 2012 You should try eating them, they are actually really good.....google carp recipes and you will find tons. you would be really surprised how good they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZHUNTER05 Report post Posted June 25, 2012 Oh ok thanks for the info. I have been kicking around the idea of buying a bowfishing set up but really didn't like the idea of eating all the carp i would shoot. Is that legal to sink them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bowfishAZ Report post Posted June 25, 2012 Yea im not to much into the idea of eatting a carp either... As far as I know it is legal to do. Since carp are an invasive species they dont want them in the lakes and encourage people to kill them. Game and Fish will sometimes show up to tournaments to haul away the fish for studying animals or as we did at the Shoot the Moon, take it to the animal rescue place, otherwise its always been punch and dump back into the lake.
