Was it an American shad?

Halibut.

What is that?

American shad. Their running up the Delaware to spawn now. Great fighting fish. I hook em and let the little guys reel em in, they love it.

I like shad. Bony but they taste great.

[assateague]

Yes they do. The fine folks at MD DNR have closed shad to harvest. Just because, I guess, since there is no apparent reason that anyone around here can figure out.

Pick up a book called "The Founding Fish" by John McPhee.

Good read about those little bastages.

Ha! You really need to move! We can keep 25 per day. I never do but at least we can.

What do you guys use for shad on the east coast. We use little pan fish jigs here.

[bill herian]

You were lied to. Definately Alosa sapidissima

You probably read Canada's version of the same book, or something.

Always wanted to try that! It's legal to do here too.

[assateague]

Not here. Shocking. I do believe the People's Republic of Maryland has surpassed California. If it wasn't for all those fed dollars surrounding DC, we'd be just as broke as you, too.

never ate one. I save a few to chop up and use as catfish bait. The rest go back in the water.

I cut them into chunks, like you would steak a salmon, but three or four inches long. I boil them with potatoes and a whole onion. Doesn't sound like much I know, my uncle kept tellling me to try it for years. It tastes great. But my favorite part is the roe, fried up.

[jehler]

Looked like a gizzard shad to me

x3 Never eaten a shad. Have eaten buffalo ribs and they are good.

Pretty slow out there. ended up 5 for 7 and kept a coho and a king releasing the football browns. Those fish are descaled by the way. Lake was weird. Glass a half mile off and small chop between land. Not much color in the water and we didn't realize the warmer water wasnt hugging the shoreline until it was too late. Lox here I come.

[bill herian]

I see two coho.

[Mornin Beef]

I see two coho.

You cant see that black gums.

[jehler]

Maybe I have caught coho and called them little kings, if I catch 8 I'll know there little kings

[bill herian]

I see two coho.

You cant see that black gums.

Or the spots on the tail.

Eyes say coho too.
