I have looked into it and in most other states bowfishing is a HUGE saltwater sport. People hunt the ocean for everything from rays to reds. There is specialized equipment made specific for the sport capable of handling 200+ pound fish. 12' alligators are taken using the same equipment. It was just a thought......not much different than harpooning a tuna at all. (something else I would love to do) I have only caught them trolling and they were all under 200 lbs. I was on the ferry coming off of Block Island years back and saw a spear fisherman who had taken a 40+lb bass using nothing but a snorkel and a wet suit. Thats cool to me as well. There isn't much in this world that doesn't interest me..

northeasts best bowhunting and outdoor adventures. Now on the Pursuit network.
