I live 5 minutes from the river but don't have a boat. I've tried fishing from shore but never caught anything except an occasional small mouth. Can fish be caught from shore or do you need a boat?

I don't fish from shore, but I see plenty of guys doing up and down the river. Trick is getting the spoon or dart near the bottom. Poor man's down rigger works great. Diving plug with hooks removed, 3' of floro tied off back eye of plug to your dart or flutter spoon does the trick.

Are they thick Trevordog? Looks like a good time. Love that Shad fight on the big river. Got my spoons all shined up and ready to go!

Yes they are thick. Lots of shad in the river right now. Boat next to mine must have put at least 20 in their boat. Fun fish to catch on med rod, Poor man's salmon is pretty accurate!!
