Fishing off neighbors Dock Here at Lake Whitney . About 7AM August 3
They were schooling  in about 40 Feet of Water for about 5 minutes chasing Shad against the Rock Bank.
Last 10 years I have been just throwing these back as they could be 25 inches long and just NO Meat on them . These filleted out very nice and had lots of Meat so I being a Catch and Release type of Fisherman caught them Filleted them and Released into a Hot Fish Fryer.
