Team Slumpbuster grabbed the bows and spotlights and headed out to the Colorado saturday night. We were on the boat at 9 and by 3 we had a boat load of small gar and big buffalo as well as some nice carp and even some big shad(buddy wanted catfish bait) and of course an empty case of German sodas. When the smoke cleared 32 fish were in the boat with another 10 or 15 that had pulled out after they felt the sharp Muzzy tip. No huge gar were even seen I guess they are still down pretty deep. The batteries are on the charge as I write and Team Slumpbuster will be chasin the big girls friday night on the Navasota River.

Nice haul, what little bow fishing I did 30 yrs. ago was all in the day time. I remember the Texas City Dike when you couldn't get a set of railroad lights up and going for a couple miles from the end for all the people fishing at night during the summer. That picture looks like one of those meat hauls where there is two man legal limits of average cats. All that fun and it's legal too.

What do you do with all those carp and gar? Eat them? Sell them? Just wondering!

If you want them I bet he will give them to you.

I give a lot of mine away to people who eat them or want them as coyote or hog bait and some I use for fertilizer! I would have to be REALLY REALLY deliriousy hungry to eat a carp! So hungry I have already eaten my boots.
