I've heard that a lot of the fish that most of us pass on are actually good when prepared properly. One of the things that my wife's grandfather does with some of the bonier fish is to skin'em, gut'em, cut the heads off, and pressure cook'em. He explained that if done properly, the bones get soft like the ones you get in a can of salmon. I swear I think he'd eat just about anything that comes from the water. He was probably down at the Ohio the other day to see if they'd let him take that octopus home and cook it. lol Never really had an interest in bowfishing (buying euqipment and such) but it does sound like something fun to try once or twice.
