CWpredator Report post Posted May 3, 2016 Me and my partner Nash headed up for a little bowfishing Saturday afternoon. Knowing the weather was questionable we still took the gamble. Got to the lake about 530 pm arriving to decient weather conditions just slightly overcast. As soon as the boat was launched we had 20-30mpg wind gust and rain hit. We re trailered immeiadatly and sat in the truck for about 2 hours waiting for the weather to pass. After getting extremely restless we said the heck with it and headed out about 7:30. The fishing was slow to start but we put 4 or five fish in the boat the first hour. Then the rain wind and lightning returned but we stayed out. Still raining About 1030 I shot the first monster of the night fairly deep fish. We figured it was a decient fish when we saw it in the water but had no idea till we boated it. Turned out to be 40lbs. About 20 more minutes after we troll down a little further and same thing another decient buffalo shows up. Little did we know when Nash shot it that it would turn out to be 12oz shy of the state record. The fish weighed in at 46.6 lbs. after boating that the rain continued to become harder so we pulled off the water. Besides the miserable conditions it's a night we will both remember for a long time. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CWpredator Report post Posted May 3, 2016 Both are black buffalo. Wish either one was a small mouth we would have the state record easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
