ah the dreaded time of year when fish can swim around with their mouths open and gain a few pounds. What are some of your guys more successful tactics fishing these reservoirs? Can usually manage to get a few bites yoyoing a silver buddy, pulling a fluke on a carolina rig, or ever so painfully working a jerk bait. I'd like to hear some input from some of you all on your approach to this situation

I saw some Shad flipping Pretty aggressively on the surface near my house today. The gizzards usually don’t even die off, mainly all threadfin. I have often times netted the Shad and taken them out into the current where there weren’t so many and had better luck there. But since I know where you are fishing tomorrow I would say run up the river and throw a red crankbait
