For those of you that love the Columbia River shad fishing, the number of shad through the dam continues to increase. The past few days have shown 2-3 thousand fish per day and the numbers are on an upward trend. Though we may not have fish able numbers by the weekend, I am sure that we should by the following weekend. Compared to last year we are a tad higher in numbers year to date.
If you have never fished shad they are great little gamesters and fight quite well for their size. A good fishery for kids as when they are there the action can be non stop.
We have a "Great" supply of shad darts (jigs) on hand.
