Shad flies

Wayne if you want someone to test your new secret super fly send me a
couple. I don't charge for market tests.
Just finished reading John McPhee's The Founding Fish and plan to catch
the first shad going up the local Black River this April.

Caught a bunch in cypress swamp up in Jeff Miller land last spring. But of
course we used spinning gear and darts, with all the roots and trees it
would be worse than casting in a mountain rododeme {?} covered creek.
