A good weekend.
« on: June 03, 2016, 10:41:28 am »
Getting around to posting some pics from last weekend.  Mullet and I head up to see Chris in SC.  Had a great experience.  I'd never been bow fishing before and it was an absolute blast.  Learned to clean Gar.  Got to see cat fish jugging and the woods up there are really great.  It was a quick trip but very good fun.  Thank again, Eddie & Chris!

Very cool Steve, that is something I have been wanting to try for a while now.   Your head heal up ok after the Classic?

Honestly Aaron, I don't think my head will ever be fully right! ;D  So funny, I had a little cut about the size of my pinky nail that was gone in a week.  Some people said that I'd been run over.  Tall tales.  It was very minor. :)

I'm gonna start playing with bow fishing now that I got a taste of it.  I really liked it. We've got Nile Perch, Bowfin, Gar, Mullet, Sting Rays and some others to chase this far south.  In both fresh & salt water.  Gotta keep my eye out for gators, though!

Yea, I just happened to be walking by and watched it happen.  I give you a 9 on the dismount, but a 2 on sticking the landing!
 ;D ;D.   I still have a picture of the wound

Yea, it was a lot of fun but not long enough. Pat, picked up another 1/4 acre of land and found about eight old graves back in the bushes. I hope I didn't buy into a Stephen King novel.

That is great fun. I got back into it this year.
Mostly carp so far. We got plenty gar down near the bay.
Night shootin. Those gar make great quivers :)
I always see big snapin turtles. I may jug a few of them this summer.

Looks like fun, we use to do it a lot and it is a blast, not sure why we don't do it much anymore. :-\
