MDC invites participants to come enjoy nature by learning the basics of bowfishing. This is a legal method to pursue nongame fish, including bluegill, green sunfish, carp, carpsuckers, suckers, buffalo, drum, gar, and all other species not defined as game fish or listed as endangered in the Wildlife Code of Missouri. Bowfishing offers an exciting way to pursue these fish that typically draw little interest with traditional pole-and-line or setline methods. Participants will have an opportunity to practice with bowfishing bows, and will then be taken out on the lake to attempt harvesting some fish. This event is for participants 11 years of age and older. Participants should bring a water bottle, hat, sunscreen, and any snacks they may want. Equipment and life jackets will be provided to those who need them. Registration is required. For questions contact Rob Garver (660)785-2420 or rob.garver@mdc.mo.gov. Robert L Garver
