Default Re: were are the shad????

I agree with FE. Weather plays a big role in fishing for Shad, especially if you wade for them like some of us love to do. The drastic drops in temp and high winds usually have put the kibosh on the shad bite for me in the past. The temp drops usually give the Shad lockjaw and casting 6 or 8 lb test on windy days is a challenge to say the least. Just looking at the extended forecast for the week I think I'll be hitting the Gap next weekend and hopefully I'll have until mid May to have some fun. Good luck guys!!
