I would just say that make sure your bow has an ok amt of poundage, shooting those big gar a lot of times they will bounce off if there isn't enough power.  And if you have a boat to put lights on or know of someone with lights on their boat, do that, it's much funner than spotlighting, and easier as well since you don't have to hold a light.

Learn to shoot without fingers if you haven't already, makes things easier.

Hopefully since this is a late post it will find you already having a great successful time.  It's one of my favorite pastimes.

wildfire,

my best friend is a bowfishing freak from mississippi.  He goes atleast once a week and goes after everything from carp, buffalo, gar, catfish, to redfish depending on what state he bowfishes in.  He loves to share his tips with anyone.  His icon name is lunker on www.southernfishingforum.com if you ever wanted to look him up

Just dont skimp on equipment it will end up costing more in the end. Cheap reels will make you lose arrows that ain't cheap. Go ahead and buy the good stuff.
