Soon after the largemouth are through spawning on the lake, the Shad will begin to spawn. Target riprap and rock banks with overhanging trees. A white spinnerbait is a perfect bait when this is happening. Fish the first few hours after daylight for the best success.

March on South Holston can be incredible! This early pre-spawn trip to South Holston was dominated by the jerkbait! The smallmouth were absolutely crushing the bait around the dam off of the rock. We picked up a limit quick en route to a 2nd place finish. You can find all of the fish catches and details in the video below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIU2SOKV2Oc&t=10s
