The Family Fish Fair is coming up. We'll have the same type of set up again this year. Three stock tanks with mechanical fish and the range with the 3d foam fish. This event is on Saturday, June 6th from 8am to 4pm. We can use as many volunteers as we can get. Even if you know nothing about bowfishing. :D Let me know if you can help. (several of us volunteers go bowfishing and have a fish fry after 4pm) http://www.greatriverroad.com/Cities/Grafton/fishFair.htm Pictures from last year's event. http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=2848203&mpage=1&key=fishing%2cfair� Lots of people (about 1100-1500 kids). Foam target area. Bowfishing after 4pm Fish fry.
Count me in! I have it marked on my calendar. Let me know if you need any help setting up Friday night also. I could be there 5:30ish. I'm still working on getting a couple of bows for the event too. Just don't count on them yet.
Once you get South of Joliet jorts are mandatory, or else you get gay bashed. Jorts and cutoff sleeve t-shirts, the official attire of bowfishers around the world :D
Actually, you don't see all that many 'jorts' in bowfishing. (Fishhumper there with the jorts is from Central MO) Sleeveless shirt are almost mandatory tho'. At this tourney it was cold and wet... and still there were sleeve less shirts. Mostly... there was rain gear.
Last weekend we had a tourney down at Carlyle. Still fairly cold... No jorts to be seen. But still, there were flip flops and sleeve less shirts! Kyle has the sleeveless shirt and the awesome beard thing going on. Go Kyle! Yep, we're a sexy group! I know you northern city boyz wish you could be so cool.
First off, Kyle has one awesome beard I sure would love to come help out, but thats a little far for me . If you start something up a little farther south give me a ring:d
Bump. Fishing Fair is this Saturday. If you're in the area, bring your kids. John, do you have a bowfishing rig? If you don't I'll bring one down for you. (I won't mention what brand. ) You don't need an IL fishing license this weekend.
