Okay, two years ago we stocked Threadfin Shad in the early spring, they seemed to take hold quite well, and last fall I was seeing large schools containing at least 4 different size/age classes up to 6"+. Normally the only time I see them is during warm weather in the morning/evening when they "flip" across the surface in groups. This year I have yet to see them at all, my water temps are well into the 80's and the water has been extremely clear this year (see reply on Shocking extremely clear water thread). How possible/likely is it that with said clear water the bass just wiped out the shad between November and now? Am I just being paranoid? Is it too early in the year to be worried? 15 acres, Atlanta area, mild winter so no freeze kill issues, Greg's my pond guy.
