Default Recurve setup

Wanting to get into bowfishing and need some advice on bow setup. It's an old Bear recurve, 40#, with a stabilizer mount on front and shooting off the shelf. What would be the best setup? Can I shoot off the shelf? Just looking for the best/safest setup. I was looking at the Muzzy extreme kit, but i can't use the rest on this particular bow.

I have tried several rests and I prefer shooting off the shelf. I have a Pearson flame hunter recurve and love it. just buy a reel seat and a reel, spool it with 200lbs fast flight and shoot some fish.

Thats the right track. You can't go wrong with Muzzy anything. The spinner will do everything from shad to gator gar.

Love my cajun extreme rest. Cheap and reliable. arrow will stay on the rest while swinging the bow around. Fast and easy load up.
