With the lack of rain we've had this year so far, the rivers and streams are so low that many herring and shad are stuck in the estuaries and bays waiting for the spring rains to come.
This can make for a VERY interesting April as the schoolies are usually the first to arrive. Next will be the sub-adults, those that are just under to just over keeper size. I figure that as long as the herring and shad can't migrate upstream to their spawning grounds, the bass will feed quite well, making for an equally interesting summer!
