Caught my first shad today at Goethe I guess?? Crossed the walkway at William B. Pond area. I stuck about 8 total but only got 2 to hand. First fish was a big female 20+ inches, I was pretty worn out after getting her in on my 6wt. Big school over there but lots of people swimming etc.. Pretty cool to watch them spawn at dusk too. Oh yeah, caught a budweiser too but it got off the stringer some how.... (tucked it in my vest but I guess it fell out.... it wasn't even opened yet either...)
