I was wondering, for you die hard Shad fishermen who are able to get out so often......Wouldn't it be wise to first fish the lower rivwer at DEEP area?? Am thinking that the Shad have to come past that area heading up to Windsor. So when fish are caught in lower river, it will give indication as to when they will arrive at various spots up river......Or are there certain water conditions to be met.
Just checking, I have only caught two shad in my life and they were near BARTS. HICKORY SHAD, different story, year before the pandemic, was a hot summer day at DEEP when I caught/released 39.
