How to Bowfishing in Muddy Water
redzwan12How to Bowfishing a Muddy Water.
Due to inclement weather conditions such as winter, springs and floods resulting from long rains such as elnino, water bodies in form of rivers, lakes, streams and ponds often get flat, murky and muddy. These conditions are however short lived as they usually clear after some time.
Mud in water impairs clarity hence depriving the fisher of a clear view of underlying fish in order to easily spot and shoot it with an arrow. In most cases, therefore, fishers opt to go home empty-handed. However, for those who prefer fun trips to bow fishing, the whole situation may relate to a low hanging dark nimbus clouds-an explanation for the cost incurred and time wasted at the vicinity without realizing the objectives of such trips.

The question is, what if you are found in the funny shoe of bowfishing fun trip or having reported to your favorite fishing spot only to realize that the waters there are muddy?
You will definitely go for an alternative.
In a murky, flat or muddy water, there are several factors that serve as red flags to the presence of fish below the surface of the waters. These factors range from Broad V-wakes on the water surface, moving grasses to waging tails, just some inches above the water surfaces. When using a lure, therefore, the fishing itself can be quite successful, BUT NOT IN ARROW-BOW-FISHING.
So long as your safety is guaranteed, there is no need to relent or retreat. You just need some simple procedure on how to go through the remaining stages of this epic journey.
