What's so great about Shad? You might call shad the lottery fish of Washington. When you're talking shad, you're talking big numbers. But there's one major difference--shad are a lot easier to come by than those million-dollar lottery payoffs. Hit the Columbia River below Bonneville Dam from late May through June and you're likely to hook into a million-count shad jackpot.
You might also think of shad as the piscatorial Rodney Dangerfield--they don't get nearly the respect they deserve. The word is slowly getting out, though, that shad fishing is great sport. These stout battlers don't give up easily, and often put on a flashy aerial battle. Couple their strong fight with a tender mouth, and landing half of the shad you hook can be an accomplishment.
Add to this the fact that there is an abundance of this largest member of the herring family. The estimated size of the shad run, based on fish passage counts at Bonneville and The Dalles dams, first topped 1 million fish in 1978, and has stayed above that figure ever since. The peak was 1990, when over 3 million shad passed through.
