Freshwater fishing occurs in the center of the state. Most saltwater fishing is out of Tampa Bay. USCG Captains Travis Lanphar & brother Shanon Lanphar grew up in Central Florida and have spent the last 30 + years fishing the lakes, canals, and inshore flats of Central and South Florida. They are avid bow hunters and archery enthusiasts. Their love for bowfishing started while they were preparing

for an alligator hunt with a bow. Equipped with an old Ben Pearson recurve with badly twisted limbs and a tape on reel, they practiced shooting at fish to prepare for the alligator hunt. The excitement of shooting fish prompted them to compete in local bowfishing tournaments to hone their skills. Twisted Limbs Bowfishing was born. Since then, both captains travel to shoot national tournaments to meet like-minded fisherman in the industry. Travis and Shanon now spend many nights and weekends sharing their love of bowfishing with others. Join them for an adventure that you won't forget.

What We Target Bowfishing & Why — Episode 1: Tilapia

🐟 TILAPIA
One of Florida’s most underrated bowfishing targets.

They’re invasive, reproduce fast, and compete with native species for food and habitat. In many waterways, tilapia overwhelm canals and shallow freshwater systems — especially during spawning season when they bed up by the thousands.

That’s where bowfishing comes in.

Bowfishing helps:
• Reduce invasive populations
• Protect native fisheries
• Create nonstop action for beginners and pros alike
• Put fresh fish on the table

Tilapia are perfect for introducing people to the sport because they’re:
✔ Fast-moving
✔ Found shallow
✔ Great eating
✔ Common year-round in Florida

When you shoot tilapia, you’re not just having fun — you’re helping manage an invasive species while making memories on the water.

🎯 Fast shots. Big numbers. Real conservation.
