Pool_Eleven Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Im looking to catch some shad to use as cut bait. Ive caught a few in random places on accident but never really caught any on purpose. I live 5 min from the sippi river with 2 lock and dams withn 15 min of my house. Id love some advice on how to catch them and maybe some advice on some gear. Or if anyone has any other locations or ideas of where to catch some would be awesome. Appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDawg23 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Throw a crank bait at any discharge areas. I have snagged about a dozen large shad this year fishing bass on Pool 2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
