I went down Thursday night and fished to Saturday morning. I got on the lake late Thursday, around midnight, and it was very quit. I tried a couple different spots and there was no shad to be found.

Friday night everyone and their brother seemed to be out fishing. It was so bad there was almost no place to get in and fish without making someone mad. I marked stripers moving into the mouth of the creek about 8:30pm and shad started popping about the same. The shad were up but sparse. The stripers were not busting the surface at all. I started out with top water and had them smacking at it like crazy but they weren't interested enough to grab it. I switched to a sliver and caught fish.

I caught three, one was short. They came at 8:30pm trolling shiners on planer boards, 10:30pm on a sliver, 4:30am on a sliver.

The shad were up from 8:30pm to about 11pm, after that they were very sparse but continued all night.
