Great video! I use a 6ft 2 rod with 12 lb mono. I used to buy shad darts and I still do but last year I started buying weighted jigs and just paint them what ever color I want. They work great and are WAY cheaper. I went 3 times last year and brought back a total of 56. 😊
Yea Shad darts are getting overly expensive and it’s a very good idea to come up with ways to make them. I sometimes put a hook and a bead at the end and it works great as well. Thank you for your time and fish on!
Yes, there’s a store nearby the damn that has a sign saying Shad Darts 🎯. It’s on Hwy 14 heading East toward the damn and it’s about 5 or 6 miles before reaching the damn on the left hand side
HI, Can you read the info on your rod - " length/ lure weight / line weight / brand ". I`m having trouble finding a 7ft rod with 1 pound lure weight that`s affordable around $70. Much appreciated. Thank you.
Should do a Subscriber meet and greet at the dam it's always fun to fish shad with a bunch of friends!
Yes one day I will definitely do that and thank you so much 😃🙏
