after the mods i made to my bow i would think it could easily slay a fish at close range 15 ft or less with the right arrows the arrows included wont suffice buy some real fishing arrows but i would not suggest any modifications to the bow i took a chance and got lucky so far hope you have fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes it will work for that bow. I have about 8 different recurve bows and it works well on any and all. I am not personally familiar with your bow that your asking about other than a few pics I have seen. If it has a place to mount sights (screw inserts) then it easily will screw in the preexisting screw mounts and takes a few minutes to screw on. On my bows without sight screw inserts, they sell some bungie cord like mounts to prevent you from having to screw it onto your bow. I personally have just used a small piece of cheap bicycle tire and wrapped it around the mount to the bow several times and placed a small wire around it to help keep the rubber biting itself. I then put some duck tape on rubber tire and wire to give it a cleaner look. It has lasted several years with zero maintence. This is obviously more of a "rigged" version but bottom line is yes there is no reason why the reel won't work one way or the other. I can't remember what the bungie cord material sold is called but have seen in in sullys bow fishing or backwaters bow fishing magazine/website

Yes. It would take the place of your bowfishing reel though, if you're using for bowfishing.

Actually I haven't used it yet. I bought it primarily to keep in my vehicle so I always have a fishing pole available as I travel the backcountry in Colorado. I can tell you that it is well made and I believe it would be fine for lake fishing. Hope this helps.

Yes this will fit any bow that as a place for a stabilizer. It simply screws in exactly where the stabilizer would be. Although; there are other types that allow you to mount a regular reel, this is the best way to "test the waters" (no pun intended) of bow fishing.

My reel came with line and seems to come off fine. I use it for bowfishing....only downside it its weight.

It is not good to train to hunt. It is good to teach kids and young teens how a bow works in general and to practice learning to aim. The accuracy and distance achievable on this bow is definitely not anything you would want to hunt with, but it is good to introduce kids to learning the basic mechanics of archery.

I was using it for a 80lb crossbow and sometimes the bolts imbedded so deeply that they were nearly unretrievable. But those were bolts not arrows. I think it would be perfect for a bow with a lower draw weight. Hope that helps.

Yes :) I got it as my beginner bow. Also because I am a very tiny woman lol. It's got great pull and sturdy.

Absolutely. This is a great setup and I would recommend it to anyone for light to medium fresh water fishing.

It would work great for the bow hunter. It is small and light weight so it doesn't take up much room in the hunting bag and you barily fell it around the neck.

I think you would be ok with it. I have never used one for walleye but I have never had any problems with it for bass fishing and I fish them a lot. Only problem I ever had was a bad handle and I just replaced it and was an easy fix. The drag is good and casts real smooth. I would use them for steelhead fishing in the rivers and think it would hold up just fine. I have fished the Black Max for northern largemouth bass in the state of Oregon for bass as big as 9lbs and use them in bass tournaments and again have had no problems other then one of my reels had a loose grip on the handle and I just replaced the handle for an easy fix.

No! the bow is much heavier than advertised and arrows fall out of my bow when I point it down ... if your in a tree stand and a deer comes in close your in trouble ... yuk!

I would recommend if you just want a bow to shoot at target. Not difficult to draw back and aim. I purchased for my 10yr old last year. It's really a beginners bow, not for hunting.

Yes it is a good mobile fishing rod for lakes, creeks, or any place you see might have a bass or catfish in it. I would not use it in salt water for larger fish though. I have had no problems with it in the lakes I have fished and caught several bass, crappie, and catfish on it.

Yes, it should work fine for that. I use mine for trout fishing. Have had it for about 6 mo. Seems to be very durable. The only complaint I have is sometimes one of the joints will stick a be a little hard to push in.
