Archery Talk

I used to go quite a bit. Not so much anymore. I still have a nice recurve set up to bow fish with.

 

Nice, man. I can't say it will help you out in a tree but I have found that fish I would normally throw back are amazing to eat! i.e. Garr

 

Really? I'd never thought. Here's a old pick I happen to have, me with a couple small carp.

 

Neither did I but what a pain to fillet out but worth it. You need tin snips, a hammer, and good fillet knife... Lol

 

Here's a pic from from a couple months ago. It's a blast when your doing it but makes for a crapy next day.

 

My story is just like that also, when I got my 11 point,one week later coyote hunting in the same stand my bucks dad showed up and absolutely dwarfed my 11 point, it had to be a 190 to 200 class buck.

 

Very true!

Later.

 

What are the three fish in the upper left? I've heard if you took a pine board, scaled and filleted carp on it, threw that shit away, that the board wasn't that bad...

 

they look like snake head...they are a big problem in MD.

 

Yeah, I've heard of them. There have been some accounts of them getting in our river (Tennessee). I thought they could be sauger or (Jack salmon, local name). But they're only in the Tennessee system. They're just a sub species of walleye.

 

They are snakehead. They are also a good fish to eat.

 

I havent bow fished in many years...it was fun.

Do you have the silver carp problem there? Ive seen some videos of people bowfishing those and it looks like fun.

 

Thats rare Im guessing. Most deer around here are already out of velvet. But Im in a way different state.
You ever see any piebalds? That property I hunted over by Waldorf had a bunch of them.

 

We've been lucky with invasive species for the most part. We are dealing with zebra mussels. Yeah those carp will jump in the boat with you!! They are not here, yet at least.

 

the zebra mussels are on the invasive species list for boats here in Idaho.

 

I'm in Maryland (northern Baltimore county) and have seen a few piebalds over the years at our farm. Haven't been out yet this year, might head out Saturday if I find the time.

 

Shot a gear head t18 and t20 yesterday.
Super impressed with how they shot. How you can get that performance out of such a small now is beyond me.

 

Those are crazy! Never heard of them before...I'm looking more into this....

 

Lots of guys here are turning to them.

 

I have. My buddy got one two years ago I'll see if I can dig up the pic
