is that true?
Hickory shad are supposed to be excellent striper bait. I know a "ghost" surfcaster from CT who has caught many 40 # bass on live shad in the Gallilee chanel, and claims to have lost a fifty using them too, and I believe him. As a cut bait they're supposedly great for gator blues, and probably bass as well.
