I have tried a few times before but never hooked anything but the bottom. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adjust weight to just get a tick or two on bottom per drift. Joser 1 Ditch Troll #338 -Tight Lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joser Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 I appreciate it. The last time I gave it a shot lead shad darts were still legal! Very new to this willow leaf game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikez2 Posted May 10 Report Share Posted May 10 I scouted the Merrimack on Friday. Not looking for shad specifically, just poking around. The river was over the banks and into the woods above the Lawrence dam. I didn't look below the dam but assume it is high there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late last week there was whitewater where it first crosses 495. Still high enough that the water's edge is about three trees back into the woods. mikez2 1 Massachusetts EPO: 1-800-632-8075 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
