Abstract: An arrow rest for bowfishing which is comprised of a frame (3) which is a piece of ⅛ inch stainless steel rod with a 90 degree bend in the center and two 45 degree bends to form a symmetrical triangle with 1{fraction (1/16)} inch distances between bends. The joined ends at the center of the hypotenuse of the triangle form a frame joint (4) which is placed on the end of a stud (6), which is stainless steel {fraction (5/16)} inch fine threads ½ inch long, in such a manner that a frame (3) is parallel and the hypotenuse is perpendicular with the elongation of a stud (6). A frame (3) has a weld (5) securing it in said position. A setscrew (8) is installed into a modern archery bow (2) from the opposite side of a bowfishing arrow rest (1) so as to lock in place. With another embodiment of this invention, a frame (3) is placed and welded on the end of a stud (6a), which is stainless steel {fraction (5/16)} inch fine thread 1½ inch long, in the same manner as above.
