I caught hickory shad one night on a back beach. They were breaking out all over the place and I thought that they were schoolies, but they wouldn't take my swimmer. I tied a fly out in front of the swimmer I was using and the show was on! They'd take the fly and when they felt the hook would come 3-4 feet out of the air. Soft mouths - I had to loosen my drag to next to nothing or it would tear out.

I livelined one for a couple of hours with no success.
