I caught my first shad of the year on opening day of trout last year and fishing remained good up into the end of May, the run has a lot to do with water temp, with the cold winter this year I figure the run will probably start a little later, they are a blast to catch when they are here in large numbers, double and even triple headers in the boat are common
