Only got one shad every evening (Thur-Sun) this past holiday weekend. I talked to a guy that snorkeled the river and he said that he ran into a big school with large fish in the middle part of the river. The highlight of the weekend was when I found a small pod of them in the middle of the day and got 8 in about 2 hours. I went back yesterday to the same spot and they were gone. I haven't seen any spawning activity after sunset so they still must be around. Jeff C.
