6/7/2014 9:40:00 AMNice batch of fish for the time you put in. Thanks for the tip to use crappie jigs instead of shad darts. I would never have thought of using crappie jigs but they are much cheaper and come in a lot of different colors. We're you using crappie jigs with marabou or curly tail grubs? Thanks.

A good portion of shad will be used as cut-bait for channel cats, and crab bait starting next month - the rest will be in my belly! Cooked them right, it might be one of the better fish you'll eat! (I.e. charcoal grilled & dip in your fav sauce, pan fry, baked with foil wrap & spread sauce over, lots of other way also), if you decide to eat them - very important to make sure you bleed them.
