The reel indeed is your final connection with the fish, but it’s only as good as the line. Prior to the season spool fresh line on the reel. You can use fishing braids, but make sure those lines will spool on the reel. Don’t go light—lines sold by bowfishing manufacturers come in tests up to 200 pounds.

Muddy water isn’t necessarily the only place to go bowfishing. Table Rock Lake in Missouri, and Bull Shoals Lake in Arkansas, both recognized for their deep clear water, produced a winning weight of 376 pounds of carp at the U.S. Open Bowfishing Championship. [links]
Bowfishing reels are designed to be mounted on the bow and are easy to retrieve a big catch. Those models are the best all-around choice, so you won’t miss the chance at a trophy fish.

A traditional compound bow for deer hunting will work, just keep in mind that bowfishing is a rugged sport. You will want to rethink the idea of using your finely tuned, prized whitetail outfit. You risk the bow getting banged up on a boat ride, someone stepping on it in the dark and other hazards you don’t encounter when deer hunting.
Sunglasses are a given when fishing during bright sun, low light and at daylight and dusk. Polarized lens cut the glare so you can see fish just below the surface, and from afar as you scope out the water.
