Tim's Notes: Asian Carp & Sting Rays
Hunting Style: If you want extreme bowfishing action I recommend 1 of
two choices. Sting rays are a gas. You can hunt them real close to
Norfolk Va. while cruising the backwaters in the summer and shoot them
cruizing in 3 to 10 feet of water. The cow nose which is the most
common will pull you out of the boat if ya shoot a good one. Expect to
kill 50 or more a day. They are great to eat so pack a cooler as well.
Weather: 75 to 100 degrees
Camp & Food: Hotels & resturaunts
Guides: Dan will show you where to hunt and give you some pointers, but for the most part the rest will be up to you.
Cost: $750 per day which is 8 hours of hunting. Additional hunters require another boat. Sharks are extra. (up to 3 hunters)
Success Rate: 100 percent shot opportunity with a gun. To few have bow hunted to give a really good average. But if your avid, I'd say no problem..
Season Dates: Late April to mid August. June is best!
Location:Norfolk, Virginia
Speciala Equiptment: Bring an AMS real, your hunting bow, and shooting gloves.
