I’m in the mood to get some fishing arrows set up for the year. I’ve been thinking of how I wanted to go about making them as I’ll be chasing 5-20 pound carp on average with thee occasional hunt for 20-40# grass carp and buffalo. I’m thinking a bamboo main shaft with a black locust foreshaft. Wth the string tied to the foreshaft, than leaving enough slack in the string before tying to the main shaft to allow the foreshaft to pop loose, taking strain off the boo shaft. I’ve been debating what to use for a head out of what I have on hand. I’ve got a copper sheet that I had used to get some copper corrosion for some verdegris. I’m thinking I could make my barbed points out of that. Think it will hold up well enough to be work the time using it? I could hunt around and find some bone, but the copper sheet is just laying in my room since I’d found a more efficient way of getting the copper corrosion.
Think it’ll work?
Thanks
Kyle
