The first harbah I went out of today I’m told had a bunch of shad in it...
how do ya catch them?, the small bait , maybe herring coming out of the river/pond system that dumps into this harbah was thick with bait..

Nervous bait!

Small tins and sabiki stuff.

they love fly teasers

Yep, have caught decent numbers with teasers. Even Red Gills.

schoolie jigs work well >< Denis does well with flies :fishin:

Fun to catch using small lures: jigs, kastmasters, flies, shad darts. Good bait, too, when big bass are around.

Just what I need, another species to chase , someone shoot me... :smash:
Thanks

It’s been a while since I have caught them. Use to get em in late October / November on tins. Tried live lining them one night with hopes of supah cows but it didn’t pan out.

Gave it a shot this morning , started a little late, no luv, the 15 to 20 wind didn’t help much...
Always wanted to try fried shad row,,, maybe I shouldn’t catch one... ;-)

Guppy , no worries .I don,t even start catching them until November ><> I see some guys live lining them the last couple of weeks thro ><.

Back in the back beach days, used to catch them on trout gear.
Then live line them to their demise.
I miss that life.
