Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Shad: We've Only Just Begun

I had a great time out there today from about 2 til 5. I went through an hour period where I kept getting bites, but couldn't stick a fish between 230-330. It was the first time chartreuse out-produced pink for me. Like Forrest said, the bite really picked up around 330-4 until I left. It seemed like the majority were hitting my chartreuse dropper, but the biggest fish were hitting the pink fly. I got my biggest shad ever today - around 22" and 4-5 lbs.

Good afternoon out there. The wind died down around 330 and then it was really on! Caught several Hshad in the 15-18" range from the shore. Kept getting the shad darts stuck on rocks though...

The people on spin reels were killing it. Probably catching about 15 an hour after 4 (at least in the area I was fishing).  Pretty crowded shoreline.. But managed to get good position with some constant roll casting.

Hope to be back about ASAP!
