      Shad

    Biting pretty good on white n chartreuse zman jackhammer with razor shaz in shad colors as trailer. Soon as water got to about 58 degrees. Before that, picking few off with football jigs around rock humps and rock bars. Finding a good eddy that comes off the main river right at end of rock bar or little below it. Hit the eddy , cast up river let the jackhammer comeback to you at about same speed as current. No takers, then I'd fish rock bar with green pumpkin with a liteorange dyed in tips of skirt.. juice with a little bait fuel,fuel, like I saidat 58 degrees bass starting get alot more aggressive. Before the 48 degree mark, only get few bites a day fishing bridge pilings and deeper structure in the 8- 20 foot range.
