    Never used it...looks kind of shitty just to be honest...I hate the arrows that comes with those kits...if your getting into bowfishing you will soon realize it is an expensive hobby...I'll eaisly drop a couple grand this year updating the rig, gas, arrows, reels, gas, fixing generator.
    Just remember to get rid of your fish lawfully....do not dump them back in the lake or worse on the side of the road makes us all look bad...What kind of bow you shooting with...I can spare a warped real seat and old 808, and a banged up stinger point arrow...a much better setup

    i agree with b-wagz....... go ahead and spend a few extra dollars on some good equipment and you wont have to buy again when you realize how much you love bowfishing.... my advice is to get a NEW zebco 888, spool it with 200lb fast flight, get you a cajun archery reel seat, and 2 cajun pirahana arrows and go fishing.... you can get all your supplies from www.backwaterbowfishing.com good people own it and its the fastest place you have ever internet shopped..... i would get the 888 from wally world tho, if it breaks you can take it back..... and dont skimp on the line... get the 200lb fast flight... its made for spinning reels....it doesnt stretch like monofiliment or other lines.... if you forget to push the button it will just either break the line or just stop the arrow.... it wont come shooting back at you.........

    if you got any other questions just give me a shout... i would love to help you get started....

    DDS...stinger points are where its at...more accurate IMO....Cajun just redesigned them where the barbs will not bend back...with an easy mod they can be eaisly twisted off too...just cut the threaded tip part where you only have to twist it twice to get it off....

    Yeap..limit is all you can shoot....There are no limits in freshwater for the # of carp/gar/catfish/mudfish/shad/snakeheads(haha)/suckers/.. you can shoot...remember it is illegal to shoot/possess grass carp though...and of course any game fish...

    no sights for 95% of shooters around here... up north alot of people use sights for day time fishing where you have to make long shots sometime.... around here its all done at night so a quick shot when the fish comes under the lights doesnt leave time to look at a sight pin...
