Have seen blokes doing exactly that with a bow on the flats near the river murray knocking carp over too. I was slightly less sophisticated - used to blast em with a shotgun or .22 - one year we filled the old mans freezer with frozen carp for yabby bait - better than buying it.
We found a backwater about 5 metres wide and 150 metres long - walked along and shot them as they lay in the shallows. best trip there was 30 big carp!!

Cheers

mate of mine 28 od years ago used to get fish with bow and arrow, mainly rays in the shallows.

he shot a 40lb er at the daly crossnig accross the other side and up about 300m

would sit in atree over hanging the water for hours.

looked weired him walking back across the crossing carrying monster fish with only a bow and arrow.

he was useless at shooting pigs with a bow but, kept shooting under them allowing for the water refraction
