ive been kicking the idea around of doing some bowfishing but im curious if i can make my own shuff, theres not much on the internet about guys making arrows/arrow accessories and reels but im curious how many make their own gear and have great luck, durability ect...
Made this from youtube! Shoots good, 45#. Pvc inside Pvc with a fiberglass rod inside. Haven't used it bowfishing yet.
Honestly I just used an old bow, took a reel that's the push button type and mounted it above the rest with 2 zip ties an some duct tape then took an old aluminum arrow wrapped the fishin line around the arrow thinly hot glued it and then put some thin layer of duct tape round that. Used a old 4 blade muzzy modded it to a 2 blade and wallah! You may not get the idea but ill get pictures if ya really want em,
Used a chair rubber end cap, mountain dew bottle, old arrow, muzzy tip, 200lb test muzzy line. Search: how to make bowfishing kit. On youtube. Found a couple ideas off of there.
I make my own arrows,i buy 5/16 orange fiberglass shafts from Manards for $1.99 use a bench grinder to shape for knock end. All you need are the fish points and slides
