Question bowfishing reel question.

I have seen reels for bowfishing bows in hunting stores that are like a kit you can put on your bow and i have seen where they used 808 reels made for bowfishing. I just wanted to know if one was better than the other and which one yall prefer....

The Muzzy's are the perfect Reels to shoot, i havent had any complication's out of mine and we usually go 2 or 3 times a week on carp so it does the job with big fish!

The Muzzy has a larger pick-up pin than the others. This is good if you forget to push the button. The Muzzy reel also has a metal seat. I have had a lot of 808 and synergys break at the plastic seat.
