Can you eat carp? Yes, and they are super delicious to eat. Check out this video on tips to bowfish carp from a boat. I will show a beginners tips and tricks on bowfishing carp.

We bowfish for grass carp using a simple compound bowfishing kit with no sights, so this is done completely instinctively. The arrows have a special arrow tipped with a point that keeps the fish from falling off. A bowfishing reel helps you keep the line only, and the bowfisherman hand pulls the line in with the fish on. The arrow tip is then unscrewed to allow the barb to face backwards releasing the fish. When the bow is fired, the arrow comes out and a slide hold the string attached to the arrow for retrieval. The line is held into the spool with a clutch, but freely spools out on it’s own if it is not held down. Bow fishing gear is pretty straight forward, but having the right stuff is essential.

A good bowfisherman can land 100’s of these invasive fishes in an afternoon. A beginner might be lucky to get 1 or 2…sometimes, they are even completely skunked, so there is a lot of skill involved in bowfishing.

The bowfishing boat we are using is outfitted with a platform to stand on which helps elevate the bowfisherman to a better height so they can see deeper in the water without having the light refract as much. When you bowfish, it’s important to aim lower than you think based on how the light reflects. Bowfishing line should be very strong and easy to hand with your hands so it does not cut it.

We are bowfishing in Ontario, Canada out of the city of Innisfil, Ontario. You don’t need anything fancy to book a trips. It is advised that you wear clothing you don’t mind getting dirty, wear water shoes, or boots, and protect yourself from the elements including the sun and rain.

When it comes to tactics for bowfishing, Donny has a lot to choose from. Rather than sit and wait, he prefers to chase carp down sometimes getting them airborn for a shot.
