Thanks for the input....I feel better about stocking the threadfin shad after hearing what people with experience stocking TShad had to say. I will definitely let everyone know how it goes after they get stocked sometime in April. I will be getting pre-spawn adult shad I am just a little worried about what affect the low water level of the lake could have on the shad if the water level does not rise. What is normally a 14 acre lake is probably only about 10 acres now and 14 feet deep instead of 25ft.
