If you're new to bowfishing, the process of tying your arrows may seem daunting. But with a little practice, you'll be able to tie your arrows like a pro in no time! Here's a step-by-step guide on how to tie bowfishing arrows:
1. Start by threading your arrow shaft through the eye of your bow fishing reel.
2. Next, take your bow string and tie a loop around the end of the arrow shaft. This loop will act as a stopper so that the arrow doesn't slide off the reel when you're shooting.
3. Now it's time to attach your point (or tip) to the arrow shaft. There are several ways to do this, but the most common is to use adhesive or heat shrink tubing. Simply apply the adhesive or tubing around the base of the point and then slide it over the end of the arrow shaft until it's snug against the stopper loop. Heat shrink tubing will need to be heated with a heat gun in order to shrink down and secure itself around the point; just follow directions on whatever brand you're using.
4. The final step is optional, but we recommend adding a small piece of reflective tape to each side of your finished arrow for improved visibility when night fishing. That's it - you're now ready to start shooting some fish!
