I fished a couple evenings at Decatur last week. caught lots of small bass around the 31 causeway but nothing big. i decided to catch some shad and go to the barge tie offs on the right side of the river headed towards cowford . caught some small spots and small mouth. Switched to another tie off and caught a nice small mouth and a spot and broke off on 3 fish (6lb old line) had to leave. Went back Thursday and could only catch 4 shad . Caught 1 good small mouth ans a good spot and 2 smaller fish. No takers on artificial bait. Hope to catch more shad next time
