Nice. I'm just getting into bowfishing and that's all we shoot is gar for the most part. We have some huge ones here. I'm trying to find a place to shoot carp at.

where u located?
I'm near ft hood and we have a lake that holds a LOT of carp and a good bit of gar. its called still house hollow lake. another lake near me is lake belton, but not sure if there are gar or carp, but I'm sure there are, just never looked for them or inquired if there were any.

is a 60-70lb draw wt. a lil much for bow fishing? if so, iv got a bear kids/female bow that i think goes up to like 30lbs. but the draw length is way to short for me to hunt with, but i can shoot it
I live in Southeast Texas near Beaumont. I think a few Lakes around here have some buffalo carp but I've never seen them. The ideal draw weight you want is 40-50 lbs. In my opinion 30lbs is a bit too weak unless your shooting out of a boat up close. I've got a 70lb compound and I just lowered it to 50lbs. I use a 50lb recurve now. Your really not shooting that far so you don't need a heavy draw weight you would get worn out pulling 60-70lbs.
