Have not been down in a while and kind of out of touch.
i am drifting. hug the river channel edge anywhere in the honey hole area. use your troller to keep control of the boat. you dont wanna move around fast, just fast enough to put a little bit of an angle from verticle on your lines, (with a 2 oz wt) on your lines. the lights will draw the shad to your boat. you might try throwing your cast net after they start swimming around the lights if you cant find any shad anywhere else. weve been using the big bass minnows.
listen with your eyes---its the only way to beleive what you hear...
