Hi Matt:
That was the unintended good consequence of the residents having to pick a lot up. Because you never see those shad other than one or two washing up dead after lake treatments, you don't know they are there, they don't bite on hooks, etc. So it worked out well in the end.
Our lake doesn't have much muck, it is sandy with about 3-4" of sediment in the deeper parts of the basin, and there is zero vegetation in the lake. We basically have a dead lake right now.
Have to wait for the zooplankton to rebound before restocking, and we have to put minnows in a cage to see if they survive. Then we have to fight to get a balanced fishery, not just LM Bass. Bottom line, We Got er Done, will see if they have to come back. I had a dream last night that the carp washed up dead.
