Tilapia hunt

(1/5) > >>

PeteC:
We did'nt get the clear calm water we were hoping for,but we made the best with what we were given.It was cloudy,with constant wind,and a very low lake(7'low),but we managed to take 35 blue tilapia.One fish was taken with my new HHB bow and a cane arrow,but without shallow flats I had to put that method on hold.The rest were taken with selfbows with our hand turned reels,spooled with flyline,and shooting manufactured fish arrows.My wife and I had a great weekend with my daughter and son in law.  God Bless

 Nice haul.  ;D Lake Parker in Lakeland, Florida was the first place they were introduced in the US. They brought the wrong fish, though. It was supposed to be the big, 40# sport fish, not the Vegetarian. You should have been here the first 2 or 3 years after that. There were 5 to 8 pounders then. They hardly get that big anymore with the commercial netting here now. But they are still a Blast to shoot. It look's like yall had a good time.
