Shad Spawn Report 5/23


Recommended Posts

Since they turned the floodgates off at Taney and I had a meeting at 9 o’clock I put the tin can in here at table rock.   A couple guides on YouTube said there was a shad spawn so I went to the back of a couple coves near here that I thought might have runoff coming in.   I found the dirty water in the third Cove I went to.

There was a bunch of leaves and wood chips piled up around some logs, and the shad were jumping out of the water onto it.   I threw a white chatter bait in there and boom!   First cast got smoked.   
 

I took evidence pictures of the nicer ones.  The big one is 20” and 5 pounds.   I was sitting on spot lock retying my leader and the 19”er came out of the wood chasing shad with his back out of the water.   I finished my knot and flipped the chatter bait in front of him and he nailed it.

I did but only by the lips.  Not like you ham handing those dirt fish😂

Good point.  Bass teeth definitely would not ever have rotting hunks of fish guts stuck between them. 😜

Has the slime on your truck's steering wheel dried yet?

Any plans to come out with a line of SIO3 signature lures?  😀

Since we already have the Fugitive, how about the SIO3 Repeat Offender???

I like it - I would change the peat in repeat to Pete, as in "RePete".
