I used to catch shad for the bait at lake lavon, but I didnt have any luck with catching shad with the casting net at Lake ray roberts (isle du bois area)... so, have you ever catch live shad at lake ray roberts?

if so... how and where did you catch them?

Early mornings and evenings on the boat ramps. How? By throwing a cast net.

When I put a light down in the water nightime at Ray Roberts the shad start swarming within about 20 minutes. I guarantee you can catch them at night if you have a submersible light to attract a big school of them. I'm usually around structure like standing timber or bridge columns when I get a megaswarm of shad.
