I would like to try this sometime !! It is on my bucket list. I looked at finding me a cheap bow in tha past and building one. I guess so I could say I got one !
I used to do it quite often, my budget was low using an old Fred bear compound bow with the LBs turned down. I would take a stream light flashlight and tape it to my stabilizer with electrical tape at night and troll the shorelines at night.
