bow fishing

Arrows target fish

Bow fishing is hunting fish with a specialized bow and arrow, typically in shallow water where fish are visible.

The arrows are attached to a line for retrieval.

It targets species like carp and gar that are difficult to catch with rod and reel: We went bow fishing on the river last night.
