Hello, I live in Northern California in a town called Chico. I am looking for some bow fishers that live around the same area that maybe would like to go kill some carp. I have a couple friends that do go shooting with me but, they aren't as passionate as I am. I only know so many spots around and near chico. So id like to make some friends that know some spots if they are willing to show me some. Just send me a message if you are interested thank you.

[Buelltroll]

I'm in Yuba City, Actually about to go out right now, there is a tournament coming up on the 9th. pm me for info

 

[chicocarpkiller]

[kuger]

I know there is some folks on here from Kansas!

Buell,will hook ya up,have fun!

 

[Buelltroll]

Tourney is in Knights Landing but its a shoot wherever ya want type deal :tu:

 

[chicocarpkiller]

how much is it to enter the tourney and do you need a boat cause i dont have i usually have to do all my shooting from a bank and walk alot

 

[Buelltroll]

20$ entrance fee, 2 man teams, pretty sure you don't need a boat because the whole tourney will be shot in rice field drainage ditches :tu: google yuba sutter carp shoot. Thats how I've shot ALL my fish (400+) since last year :tu: 100$ for biggest fish 5/lb for most # plus 2 other plaque type awards

 

[chicocarpkiller]

okay ill check it out thanks

 

[chicocarpkiller]

i have a question what do i need to bring besides a bow and entry fee i mean like what do i bring to put the fish in would a trash can work ive never been to a tournament b4

 

[Buelltroll]

lol idk man, me either. Ima bring a bigass tub and my truck lol call em n ask, I was posted up on a bridge shootin at carp when some guy pulled up and asked me if i bowfish alot n when i said almost every day he told me about the tourney. Not only do you have to figure out what your gonna lug a bunch of stankin dead fish around in all day but ya also gotta figure out how n where ya gonna get rid of em, Says somewhere that contestants are responsible for there own fish disposal too.

 

[chicocarpkiller]

yeah i figure though you can just tell them that you are going to take them home and when you leave u can probably just throw the fish in a ditch or something but yeah ill have to figure out what to bring to lug the fish around

 

[Buelltroll]

idk bout all that, you get caught doin that n I'd guess it'd be one HELL of a fine. Not to mention it makes us ALL look bad when people come across a bunch of dead fish with arrow holes in them.

 

[chicocarpkiller]

yeah but were i usually shoot them the farmers dont mind if we just throw them in the bushes they are just happy that we are out there getting rid of them i wonder if you could like donate to someone or somewhere ive heard that pig farmers take them and places that maker fertilizer cause they grind them up and put them in there stuff but idk just have to figure something out

 

[Buelltroll]

lol im in the same boat, a few of the farmers in the area have told me personally that they don't care if I throw em in the fields but im hopin to have a truck bed full so idk either :tu:

 

[chicocarpkiller]

yeah same here just have to figure something out

 

[chicocarpkiller]

so my buddy called the number on the flyer and the guy said that you show up and pay ur u fee and you can go where ever you want so i was thinking if we come down we dont want to have to drive all the way back up to the spots we know up here around chico was wondering if mayb you could point us to some spots so we can go shoot if it would b better to bring a boat my buddy has one that he could bring its not fancy or anything but it works
