Launched about 10 am and had a two man limit in 4 hours. Water temp 57 ish. I used artificial and my buddy used minnows..Minnows did a little better but not much. All fish were caught in 15ft or less on brush. The big ones arent shallow yet, only one that was 14.5". Most were just solid eaters 10-12 inch. Color on plastic didnt seem to matter to much. White, Patriot, Albino shad, blue thunder all seem to be good in the Bobby Garland baby shads
