Jason Barbknecht
Bowfish Hunting
Feb. 27-Mar. 1

For the better part of 16 years, Jason Barbknecht has run a bowfishing charter business in Northern Indiana, as well as being an Indiana Hunter Education instructor for 20 years. Let’s take a look at how this came to be.

Jason Barbknecht is the founder, owner and guide for Gills N Bills, which he runs with . His background sees him as a 30-year retired military veteran that served in the Marines, Army and Air Force. Jason grew up in rural MN, starting his hunting career at 10 years old by cleaning up his grandfather’s pastures in ND of gophers. After high school Jason joined the Marine Corps and after Desert Storm he became a bowhunter and spent time learning how to hunt in new areas around the country.

Jason spends his summers on the lake fishing with his wife Sandi and bowfishing with his sons. When not Guiding Jason spends his free time working on the skills that make him a better guide for you.
