netboy Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 I just got back from the dam. I didn't see any shad at all. There were 6 or 7 guide boats drifting the area and I didn't see them catch much. Looked like most of them were drifting double fly rigs under an indicator. I tried a white megaworm and nothing on that. Finally caught some on the egg/pheasant tail combo under an indicator. Maybe the shad kill is later in the day or just didn't happen today.

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted September 20, 2019 Author Root Admin Posted September 20, 2019 I called Jeremy and he told me the shad were coming through starting about 1 pm. Said the fishing was slow till then. Not like Taney... once those fish see shad, they hit all the time unless they're gorged and even then they bite a little. Might have to get away from the dam area and go where they're seeing a few shad get through the gauntlet of fish. He said a peach mega worm was doing good... getting away from white. I couldn't go today. May be next week. A shad event in the fall is very strange. We've never had one here I don't think. snagged in outlet 3 1
netboy Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Thanks for the follow up Phil. That explains the slow fishing yesterday morning. Guess I need to sleep in next time. snagged in outlet 3 1
