I think cabelas has some. Ive done it a bit, get an AMS reel, you’ll be happy you did. By the way, those Fiberglas parking lot markers work fine for arrows. I made some with cabeling instead of the plastic slide thingy. What are you fishing for?

cabela's has the Cajun bowfishing setups (bottle fed reels). They are just as good, if not better than AMS. I have used both. Just make sure you get a bottle fed reel, a 0% let off bow, 2 fiberglass arrows (at least) with safety slides and some spare arrow parts.
