What variety of fish are those? Big mullet? It's obviously they are in the US,

[Feral]

There was someone from here looking at having a go at thi ssort of fishing last year. Cant remember who though.

[Tim a]

Mad! but what fish would we get that action from? Maybe inside a massive surface bust up with tuna in the bay!

[Feral]

Anything you can berley up to the surface. From memory whoever it was was looking at trying it on catfish.

Tim, me and a couple of mates use to go bow hunting many years ago around the sand flats...Scored plenty of stingrays and flathead. We had an old recurve bow with an old alvey spool bolted up cant for the life of me think what size line we ended up using as most of the thin crap kept breaking...Broad head arrows worked well as it stopped the fish getting off..Just pulled them in like using a hand line......

[efc]

i think that method of fishing would work very well on carp in the upper albert and logan rivers

[Mack_attack]

do they keep them? bit of a waste if they don't

[kriso]

shootin and fishin in one not a bad setup.

[obone]

Wow thats so cool aye. Some of those shots need ridiculously fast reflexes!

[Do$tylz]

That is insane...would love to try it.

[Brian D]

Yahooooo that looks like fun.

I wonder how long before someone gets stuck with an arrow?

[ellicat]

I was thinking that too. More dangerous than 6 lure tossers in a 10 foot tinnie.
