Green Shad
Posted by: | CommentsGreen Shad
This is one of my favorite techniques big fish while there are many more people doing it this way once unthinkable fishing today, I have been doing for many years with great success. I like to use a 7 foot rod med heavy action with a heavy 5.1 starter reel with 20 lbs mono line ... the monkey is the key here as you need the line to be able to float back up to the bait. The bait itself is not as important as the presentation, although I prefer a boat 2.0 RC so the American shad, but as I say the bait one of the largest dive profiles will work on this technique.
I want to target large pad fields with this technique in the search for what is known as "spot on the ground", such as different species of aquatic plants pillows, cushions, flowers, dying vegetation along the green, changes in depth and / or muddy bottom rocky hard bottom to the sand you have to find these places "in situ" or whether it will be a waste of time in these areas large pad wandering aimlessly.
I will cast the bait into the holes in these areas key, and if the tablets are large enough to support my big crank going to throw up on the pad and drag it gently into the water followed by a quick jerk to take the bait on the surface and then let it rise back up to the surface.
Then use a stop and go back to the bait inside and outside pads up to a place that can not go further with out hooks too deeply, at the same time I am allowing the bait to dive and float and drift diving.
I'm always challenging my self to throw these lures where most do not even think of throwing. Also remember that most of these fish are "resident fish" which means you spend most of their lives back on the cover of this and are not seeing these baits very often anyway. So be sure to try this technique the next time out on your favorite body of water.
