 8) we want to see after hunt pics!!  better check you local game laws before posting pics of suckers on here...in Indiana you arn't allwed to spear/gig/snag or arrow suckers, hook in mouth only.

correct me if I'm wrong, but these arrows won't be "flying" per say, rather will be used for "spikin", shot even sometimes w/ the tip under water.  Is this right?  W/the wood tip they ought to float pretty well their full length, instead of nock up only.  I'd like to be there to see em in action. I've not done enough bow fishing :(, springs on the way, hope it will bring the shallow flooded corn fields along the river again this year.  ;D  Those things are neat Ken!!  dpgratz
