Retriever reels on all my bows all 7 setup for bowfishing. The best!
 
I still shoot a spinner at them gador Gar
...and I know alot of boys who do too!
Same here. Little Killer will put 3 fish in the tub before a retreiver shooter can get ready for the second shot.
 
I've a question. I will be fishing alone most of the time so is it possible to set up a bow with both retriever and a spinner just in case i need a back up shot a can take one.
 
I like the Spinner more mainly because it is used more and I am used to it but I have a retriever pro with large bottle attatched and love it as well. The down side of the spinner is the glitchy let out of the string after time and time again use. It gets snaggled up if thats a word in the reel and lets out the line funky. The retiever lets out the line with litttle drag and have only had one line knot inside the bottle but the line was new and wasn't worked that well. The Retriever is slower on bringing the fish in but the bigger the fish the more useful the retriever becomes. The spinner reels in bigger fish unsmoothly and the retriever will reel in smooth with a larger fish. Doesn't matter either one you use, depends on the money you have to spend and how much you want to flash that you spent near a hundred bucks on a reel =) Thought I would give a little bit of something to read and bored to heck in school so why not.

If you set it up right the line will almost fall out of a spinner.
