Default Re: Let's talk about SHAD !

I do a float trip on the BigD every spring and target shad and trout. I Spin with 4lb test on a light set up and throw a fly with 5-6 wt rod with sinking wt. foreward line. I start in Narrowsburg NY and am able to wade fish for shad right there in the pool with great results before and after the float trip.
Does anyone have a fly pattern they could share. I tie my own and am now using a chartruese or hot pink bodied fly with flash a boo tail and dumb bell or chain bead eyes. They work very well for me but I woud like some more choices.
